Megabytes per Second to Gigabytes per Second

How to convert megabytes per second to gigabytes per second

FormulaGB/s = MB/s × 0.001

Multiply the value in megabytes per second by 0.001. To go the other way, multiply by 1,000 (or divide by 0.001).

A megabyte per second is smaller than a gigabyte per second: it takes 1,000 megabytes per second to make one gigabyte per second.

About the units

Megabyte per second (MB/s)

One million bytes per second — what download managers and disk benchmarks usually show. One megabyte per second equals 8,000,000 bits per second (bit/s).

Gigabyte per second (GB/s)

The gigabyte per second (GB/s) is a unit of data transfer rate in the International System of Units (SI). One gigabyte per second equals 8,000,000,000 bits per second (bit/s).

Frequently asked questions

How many gigabytes per second are in one megabyte per second?

There are 0.001 gigabytes per second in one megabyte per second, and this value is exact by definition.

How do I convert megabytes per second to gigabytes per second?

Multiply the number of megabytes per second by 0.001. For example, 10 MB/s × 0.001 = 0.01 GB/s.

How many megabytes per second are in one gigabyte per second?

One gigabyte per second equals 1,000 megabytes per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 0.001.

What is 10 megabytes per second in gigabytes per second?

10 MB/s = 0.01 GB/s.

Is this MB/s to GB/s converter accurate?

Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
