The exabyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information. In the International System of Units (SI), the prefix exa indicates multiplication by the sixth power of 1000 (1018). Therefore, one exabyte is one quintillion bytes (short scale). The symbol for the exabyte is EB.
The exbibit is a multiple of the bit, a unit of digital information storage, prefixed by the standards-based multiplier exbi (symbol Ei), a binary prefix meaning 260. The unit symbol of the exbibit is Eibit. 1 exbibit = 260 bits = 1 152 921 504 606 846 976 bits = 1024 pebibits.
