1. What is TB to GB Conversion?

TB (terabyte) and GB (gigabyte) are units of digital information storage. 1 TB equals 1024 GB in binary conversion (the standard used in computing and digital storage).

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the simple conversion formula:

Where:

• \( TB \) — Value in terabytes
• \( GB \) — Result in gigabytes
• \( 1024 \) — Conversion factor (binary system)

3. Importance of Data Unit Conversion

Details: Accurate conversion between storage units is essential for storage planning, data transfer calculations, and understanding device specifications.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the value in terabytes (TB) that you want to convert. The calculator will instantly show the equivalent in gigabytes (GB).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why 1024 instead of 1000?
A: Computers use binary (base-2) math, where 1 TB = 1024 GB. Some storage manufacturers use decimal (base-10) where 1 TB = 1000 GB, but this calculator uses the binary standard.

Q2: How many GB are in 2 TB?
A: 2 TB = 2048 GB (2 × 1024).

Q3: What's the difference between TB and TiB?
A: TB (terabyte) is often used to mean 1024 GB, while TiB (tebibyte) explicitly means 1024 GiB. In practice, TB is commonly used for both meanings.

Q4: How accurate is this conversion?
A: The conversion is mathematically exact, though actual storage capacity may vary slightly due to formatting and system overhead.

Q5: Can I convert GB back to TB?
A: Yes, divide GB by 1024 to get TB (GB ÷ 1024 = TB).
