One TiB equals 1,024 GiB. This converter allows you to easily convert between Tebibyte and Gibibyte in real time.

Formula

TiB × 1,024 = GiB

Example: 1 TiB = 1,024 GiB

What is Tebibyte?

The tebibyte is a binary prefix unit defined by the IEC, equal to exactly 2 to the 40th power bytes (1,099,511,627,776 bytes). It was introduced to distinguish binary measurements from the SI prefix tera (10 to the 12th power). Since computer memory operates in powers of two, the tebibyte represents actual capacity more accurately. Operating systems often report disk sizes in tebibytes, which is why a drive marketed as 1 TB (SI) may appear as roughly 0.909 TiB.

What is Gibibyte?

The gibibyte is an IEC binary prefix unit equal to exactly 2 to the 30th power bytes (1,073,741,824 bytes). Linux and many other operating systems display memory and disk capacity in gibibytes for precision. There is approximately a 7.4 percent difference between a gibibyte and the SI-based gigabyte (one billion bytes), which explains why a new hard drive appears to have less capacity than advertised.
