The gibibyte per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix gibi (symbol Gi) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 8 × 230, and therefore 1 gibibyte per second = 8 × 230 byte per second = 1073741824 byte per second. The gibibyte per second has the unit symbol GiB/s.
The gigabit per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix giga (symbol G) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1.0 × 109 (1 billion, short scale), and therefore 1 gigabit per second = 1.0 × 109 bit per second = 1000000000 bit per second. The gigabit per second has the unit symbol Gbit/s.
