What is a Decimal Megabyte?
The decimal megabyte (1,000,000 bytes) is used by storage manufacturers. A '256MB' USB stick holds exactly 256×10⁶ bytes, while your OS reports ∼244MiB (mebibytes). This distinction causes the 'missing storage' perception.
What is a Kilobit?
A kilobit (kb) equals 1,000 bits (125 bytes). Internet speeds are measured in kbps - a 56k modem transferred 56,000 bits (7KB) per second. Confusingly, RAM chips use kibibits (1,024 bits) but market as 'kilobits'.
