Data Transfer Rate Converter
Convert byte-based transfer rate among B/s, KB/s, MB/s, and GB/s with decimal 1000-based prefixes.
How to use
- Enter byte-based throughput and choose two decimal representations from B/s, KB/s, MB/s, and GB/s.
Capabilities and scope
Rescale throughput expressed as bytes per second, as commonly used for file copying and storage performance.
How it works
B/s is the reference with KB/s=10³ B/s, MB/s=10⁶ B/s, and GB/s=10⁹ B/s.
Example
125 MB/s is 0.125 GB/s and corresponds to 1 Gbps when expressed in bits per second.
Useful for
- Compare file transfer rates in MB/s and GB/s
- Rescale storage throughput
- Normalize byte/s values
Before you use it
- Only decimal KB/MB/GB are provided; binary KiB/s and MiB/s are not options.
- Actual transfer time depends on overhead and device performance.

Frequently asked questions
Are MB/s and Mbps the same?
No. MB/s uses bytes and Mbps uses bits; theoretically 1 MB/s = 8 Mbps.
