How to Convert Gibibytes to Tebibytes
To convert from gibibytes (GiB) to tebibytes (TiB), you divide the value in gibibytes by 1,024. This conversion is derived from the fact that 1 TiB = 2⁴⁰ bytes and 1 GiB = 2³⁰ bytes. For more information about gibibytes as a unit of measurement, visit our gibibytes page.
Formula
Tebibytes = Gibibytes / 1,024
or
TiB = GiB / 1,024
Examples
- 1 GiB = 1 / 1,024 = 0.0009765625 TiB
- 10 GiB = 10 / 1,024 = 0.009765625 TiB
- 100 GiB = 100 / 1,024 = 0.09765625 TiB
- 1,000 GiB = 1,000 / 1,024 = 0.9765625 TiB

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a gibibyte (GiB)?
A gibibyte is a unit of digital information storage, equal to 2³⁰ bytes (1,073,741,824 bytes). It is part of the binary prefixes (IEC standard) and is often used in technical contexts to distinguish from the base-10 gigabyte.
What is a tebibyte (TiB)?
A tebibyte is a unit of digital information storage, equal to 2⁴⁰ bytes (approximately 1.099 trillion bytes). It is part of the binary prefixes (IEC standard) and is often used in technical contexts to distinguish from the base-10 terabyte.
Why is there a difference between gibibytes and tebibytes?
The difference arises from the use of base-2 (binary) prefixes, where "gibi" (Gi) denotes 2³⁰ and "tebi" (Ti) denotes 2⁴⁰. This distinction is important for accurate capacity measurements in computing and data storage.
