Difference Between bit and Byte Guide

I have excessively seen members make mistakes with Byte/bit conversion (especially with file sharing problems) so I have decided to make a small guide about it.

Basics:

A [bold]bit[/bold] is very different than a [bold]Byte[/bold]. For example 1000 bits (lower case b) = 125 Bytes (capital B)

There are also 1024 Bytes in one Kilobyte (capital Kb)

A kilobit (once again lower case kb) is much smaller than a Kilobyte (capital Kb). For example, 9000 kilobits = 1125 Kilobytes.

1 Megabyte (capital Mb) equals 1024 Kilobytes (capital Kb)

Finally, 1 Gigabyte (capital Gb) equals 1024 Megabytes (capital Mb)

Hope this helps with some of the confusion between bits and Bytes.

Good luck!
