The gigabyte 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 gigabyte per second = 1.0 × 109 byte per second = 1000000000 byte per second. The gigabyte per second has the unit symbol GB/s.
The zettabyte per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix zetta (symbol Z) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1.0 × 1021 (1 sextillion, short scale), and therefore 1 zettabyte per second = 1.0 × 1021 byte per second = 1000000000000000000000 byte per second. The zettabyte per second has the unit symbol ZB/s.
