The petabit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information or computer storage. The prefix peta (symbol P) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1015 (1 quadrillion, short scale), and therefore 1 petabit = 1015 bits = 1 000 000 000 000 000 bits = 1000 terabits. The petabit has the unit symbol Pbit or Pb.
The pebibyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information. It is a member of the set of units with binary prefixes defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).[1] Its unit symbol is PiB.
The prefix pebi (symbol Pi) represents multiplication by 10245, therefore: 1 pebibyte = 250 bytes = 1 125 899 906 842 624 bytes = 1024 tebibytes.
