file sizes
Digital space quantities
File sizes measure how much digital storage space data occupies.
The base unit is the byte, with prefixes indicating scale: kilobyte (KB), megabyte (MB), gigabyte (GB), terabyte (TB).
A text document might be a few kilobytes; a movie several gigabytes.
Check the file size before downloading.
Confusingly, these prefixes sometimes follow decimal (1000) and sometimes binary (1024) conventions.
