1 megabyte (MB) 1,000 KB or 1,0002 bytes
1 gigabyte (GB) 1,000 MB or 1,0003 bytes
1 terabyte (TB) 1,000 GB or 1,0004 bytes
1 petabyte (PB) 1,000 TB or 1,0005 bytes
1 exabyte (EB) 1,000 PB or 1,0006 bytes
Logical capacity values (for example, logical device capacity, cache memory
capacity) are calculated based on the following values:
Logical capacity unit Value
1 block 512 bytes
