Gigabyte
A gigabyte or Gbyte (derived from the
SI prefix giga-) is a unit of
information or
computer storage meaning either 1000³
bytes or 1024³ bytes (1000³ = one
billion). The usage of the word "gigabyte" is ambiguous, depending on the context. When referring to RAM sizes and file sizes, it traditionally has a binary definition, of 1024³ bytes. For every other use, it means exactly 1000³ bytes. In order to address this confusion, currently all relevant standards bodies promote the use of the term "
gibibyte" for the binary definition.
