  2. Orders of magnitude (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(data)

    The storage limit for ATA-1 compliant disks introduced in 1994. 1.6 × 10 12 bits (200 gigabytes) – capacity of a hard disk that would be considered average as of 2008. In 2005 a 200 GB harddisk cost US$100, [5] equivalent to $156 in 2023. As of April 2015, this is the maximum capacity of a fingernail-sized microSD card. 2 41

  3. Units of information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

    In the context of computing, the metric prefixes are often intended to mean something other than their normal meaning. For example, a kilobyte is actually 1024 bytes even though the standard meaning of kilo is 1000. And, mega normally means one million, but in computing is often used to mean 2 20 = 1 048 576. The table below illustrates the ...

  4. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.

  5. Metric prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_prefix

    A metric prefix is a unit prefix that precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a multiple or submultiple of the unit. All metric prefixes used today are decadic.Each prefix has a unique symbol that is prepended to any unit symbol.

  6. Unit prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_prefix

    Unit prefixes that are much larger or smaller than encountered in practice are seldom used, albeit valid combinations. In most contexts only a few, the most common, combinations are established. For example, prefixes for multiples greater than one thousand are rarely applied to the gram or metre.

  7. File size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_size

    File size is a measure of how much data a computer file contains or how much storage space it is allocated. Typically, file size is expressed in units based on byte. A large value is often expressed with a metric prefix (as in megabyte and gigabyte) or a binary prefix (as in mebibyte and gibibyte). [1]

  8. Kilobyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilobyte

    The kilobyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information.A kilobyte may refer to either 1000 or 1024 bytes.. The International System of Units (SI) defines the prefix kilo as a multiplication factor of 1000 (10 3); therefore, one kilobyte is 1000 bytes. [1]

  9. Food storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_storage

    Food storage in refrigerators may not be safe unless there is close adherence to temperature guidelines. In general the temperature should be maintained at 4 °C (39 °F) or below but never below 1 °C (34 °F). [8] Safe storage times vary from food to food and may depend on how the food has been treated prior to being placed in the refrigerator.
