About Bit (b)

The bit, its symbol b (lowercase b), is a unit of measurement used in the binary system to store or transmit data, such as Internet connection speed or the quality scale of an audio or video recording.

A bit is generally represented with two values, 0 or 1, although it can also be interpreted with other values like yes/no, true/false, plus/minus, etc. It is said that 8 bits make 1 byte.

A bit is one of the fundamental units used in computer technology, information technology, digital communication, as well as for storing, processing, and transmitting various types of data.

Note: Do not confuse Bit with Byte, (8 Bits = 1 Byte).

About Gibibyte (GiB)

The gibibyte, its symbol GiB, is a unit of measurement used in the binary system that is equivalent to 1,024 mebibytes or 1,073,741,824 bytes. Unlike the gigabyte, which is a decimal measure, the gibibyte is used in computer and data storage contexts that follow the binary system.

The gibibyte is relevant in applications that require binary precision, such as in storage capacity and data transfer in binary systems.
