Converting from Bit (b) to Exabyte (EB) | Data storage (1KB=1024B)

What is Bit (b)

A bit (b) is the smallest unit of data in computing and digital communications. It can have a value of either 0 or 1. Bits are the fundamental building blocks for all forms of digital data. When we refer to larger quantities of data, such as bytes, kilobytes, and beyond, we’re essentially aggregating bits into larger, manageable units.

What is Exabyte (EB)

An Exabyte (EB) is a massive unit of digital information storage. Specifically, an Exabyte is equal to 1018 bytes or 1,024 petabytes (PB). As data storage needs have escalated in the age of big data, cloud computing, and streaming services, understanding units like Exabyte becomes increasingly important to quantify large volumes of information.

Conversion Formulas

To convert between bits and Exabytes, we can use the following formulas based on the default conversions provided:

1. From Bit (b) to Exabyte (EB):

   EB=b×0.0000000000000000001084202

2. From Exabyte (EB) to Bit (b):

   b=EB×9223372000000000000

Examples

Here are some examples of converting between Bit and Exabyte:

1. To convert 8 bits to Exabytes:

   EB=8×0.0000000000000000008673617≈6.9388939×10−18 EB

2. To convert 7 bits to Exabytes:

   EB=7×0.0000000000000000007589415≈5.2725845×10−18 EB

3. To convert 12 bits to Exabytes:

   EB=12×0.000000000000000001301043≈1.5612519×10−17 EB

4. To convert 1 Exabyte to bits:

   b=1×9223372000000000000≈9.223372×1018 b

5. To convert 8 Exabytes to bits:

   b=8×73786980000000000000≈5.9029584×1020 b
