How the Conversion Works

This calculator uses a two-step conversion process through bytes (B) as the base unit, which is the fundamental unit of digital information storage.

Conversion Formula:

Step 1: Convert from TiB to bytes (B)

Value in B = Input value ÷ 1,099,511,627,776

Step 2: Convert from bytes (B) to MiB

Result = Value in B × 1,048,576

Simplified Formula:

Result = Input × 1048576
Where 1048576 is the conversion factor from TiB to MiB

Example Calculation:

Let's convert 16 TiB to MiB:

16 TiB ÷ 1,099,511,627,776 = 17,592,186,044,416 B
17,592,186,044,416 B × 1,048,576 = 16,777,216 MiB

Result: 16 TiB = 16,777,216 MiB
