Purpose
The Data Storage Conversions category is designed for anyone working with digital data—whether sizing up storage devices, understanding file capacities, or bridging the gap between binary and decimal units—offering precise conversions across the spectrum of bits to zettabytes.
History
Data storage units evolved with computing: bits and bytes emerged in the 1950s with early computers, nibbles (4 bits) from punch-card days, kilobytes and megabytes in the 1970s with personal computing, and terabytes to zettabytes in the 21st century as big data and cloud storage exploded. This category reflects that digital progression.
