About these units
KiloBytes
A kilobyte is equivalent to 1,024 bytes, often used to measure the size of small files like text documents or icons. It’s the first notable step up from the byte, giving a more practical way to describe data that involves text, simple graphics, or small images. Understanding kilobytes helps when considering storage for email attachments, photos, and more.
Bytes
A byte is a collection of 8 bits and is one of the most commonly used units of digital information. It typically represents one character, such as a letter, number, or symbol, in a computer's memory. Bytes are the building blocks of larger data units and are used extensively in defining the storage and memory capacities of electronic devices.
