Kibibyte

A Kibibyte (a contraction of kilo binary byte) is a unit of information or computer storage.

1 Kibibyte = 2¹⁰ bytes = 1 024 bytes

Byte << Kibibyte << Mebibyte

The Kibibyte is closely related to the Kilobyte, which is equal to 10³ bytes = 1 000 bytes.

It is abbreviated Ki-, as in KiB for kibibytes.
