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.
GigaBits
A gigabit is 1,000 megabits, or one billion bits. Gigabits are often used to describe network speeds and data transfer capabilities, especially in high-speed connections like Gigabit Ethernet or fiber-optic internet. A higher number of gigabits per second signifies faster data transfer, which is crucial for streaming, gaming, and downloading large files.
