Data Storage: KB vs KiB #3

Open andria-dev opened 2 months ago

andria-dev commented 2 months ago

It would be nice to also offer Kibibytes (1024 bytes) and the equivalent larger units as well—e.g. Mebibyte, Gibibyte, etc—given that computers use the binary number system for lots of data storage related things and not just the decimal number data storage units. Weirdly, you already offer kibibit and mebibit conversions but not gibibit or tebibit.

Relevant Units

Thanks for the suggestion - I'm not sure why I ended at mebibit, but will have a look into when I get time.
