The p is just the /. It’s the capital or lowercase B that makes the difference.
Shit I found the one person who can actually remember the written difference bit and byte
As a computer engineer, I had better know. And don’t get me started on MiB vs MB
Please do I'd like to know more! ;)
kB = kilobytes = 1000 bytes
MB = megabytes = 1000 kB
kiB = kibibytes = 1024 bytes
MiB = mibibytes = 1024 kiB
Generally on hard drive/ssd capacity it will be listed in GiB (Gibibytes). This is the reason a 1 Terabyte drive is actually something like 931 GB showing in your system. Because your system uses GiB and the manufacturer uses GB.
1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes
1GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes
1 GB =~ 0.931 GiB
Edit: I had it backwards, it is fixed now
You messed it up, actually - it's the bi units that are 1024
Shit haha appreciate the correction. I fixed it.
Understandable, and I'm really sorry to have to do this to you... But it's mebibyte, not mibibyte ;D
You know, when I typed it out it seemed wrong. I then proceeded to be lazy and do absolutely nothing to verify. I’m leaving it, I deserve to be ridiculed at this point.
I hope ya know I was just messing with ya hahaha 🤣
Mbps = Mb/s = Megabits per second.
MBps = MB/s = Megabytes per second.
