Converting from Pebibyte (PiB) to Word (word) | Data storage (1KB=1000B)

What is Pebibyte (PiB)

A Pebibyte (PiB) is a unit of digital information storage. It is equal to 2^50 bytes, which is 1,125,899,906,842,624 bytes. This large unit is often used to measure data storage capacity in data centers and for large-scale data processing. The prefix "Pebi" comes from the binary prefix system, which is based on powers of two, distinguishing it from the decimal-based prefix "Peta."
