1 bit = 0.125 bytes · open this conversion
Formula
bytes = bits × 0.125
Decimal units: 1 kB = 1,000 bytes. Windows reports storage in binary units (1 KiB = 1,024 bytes), which is why a 1 TB drive shows as roughly 931 GB.

Frequently asked questions
▸How many bytes are in a bit?
One bit is 0.125 bytes. bytes = bits × 0.125.
▸How do I convert bits to bytes?
Multiply the number of bits by 0.125. For example, 10 b × 0.125 = 1.25 B.
▸What is the difference between bits and bytes?
Bit (b) and Byte (B) both measure data. Digital storage in decimal (SI) units, the same convention drive manufacturers and network speeds use: 1 kB is 1,000 bytes.
