Data storage is the recording of information in a storage medium. Digital data is stored in units of bits and bytes. A bit is the smallest unit of data, representing a 0 or 1. A byte is 8 bits. Larger units include kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), and terabytes (TB).

The most common standards are binary (base-2) and decimal (base-10). In binary, 1 KB = 1024 bytes, 1 MB = 1024 KB, and so on. In decimal, 1 KB = 1000 bytes, 1 MB = 1000 KB, etc. Operating systems typically use binary, while storage manufacturers often use decimal.
