Gigabytes per Second (GBps) Versus Gigabits per Second (Gbps) - Comparison

Gigabytes per Second and Gigabits per Second are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate.

Both Gigabytes per Second and Gigabits per Second are the "decimal" units. One Gigabyte is equal to 1000^3 bytes. One Gigabit is equal to 1000^3 bits. There are 0.125 Gigabyte in one Gigabit. Find more details on below table.

Gigabytes per Second (GBps) Gigabits per Second (Gbps)
Gigabytes per Second (GBps) is a unit of measurement for data transfer bandwidth. It measures the number of Gigabytes that can be transferred in one Second. Gigabits per Second (Gbps) is a unit of measurement for data transfer bandwidth. It measures the number of Gigabits that can be transferred in one Second.

Unit Definitions

What is Gigabyte ?

A Gigabyte (GB) is a decimal unit of digital information that is equal to 1,000,000,000 bytes (or 8,000,000,000 bits) and commonly used to measure the storage capacity of computer hard drives, flash drives, and other digital storage devices. It is also used to express data transfer speeds and in the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of Gibibyte (GiB) is used instead.
