"Petabyte (PB) to Exbibyte (EiB) Diagram"

Petabyte (PB) and Exbibyte (EiB) are similar data storage units, but they follow different measurement standards. Petabyte is based on powers of 1000, while Exbibyte is based on powers of 1024. This conversion accounts for the difference between the decimal (SI) and binary (IEC) standards.

Follow these steps to derive the conversion factor and formula.

1. Find the source unit (Petabyte) value in bits

The Petabyte is a decimal unit. It is defined as 1000^5 bytes, which equals 1000000000000000 bytes. Since 1 Byte = 8 bits, multiply the number of Bytes by 8 to express the value in bits.

$1\,\mathrm{PB} = 1,000^{5} \,\mathrm{B} \times 8\, = 8,000,000,000,000,000\,\mathrm{bit}$

2. Find the target unit (Exbibyte) value in bits

The Exbibyte is a binary unit. It is defined as 1024^6 bytes, which equals 1152921504606846976 bytes. Since 1 Byte = 8 bits, multiply the number of Bytes by 8 to express the value in bits.

$1\,\mathrm{EiB} = 1,024^{6} \,\mathrm{B} \times 8\, = 9,223,372,036,854,775,808\,\mathrm{bit}$

3. Calculate the Conversion Factor

One Petabyte is equal to 8000000000000000 bits, while one Exbibyte equals 9223372036854775808 bits. The conversion factor is obtained by dividing the value of 1 source unit (in bits) by the value of 1 target unit (in bits).

$\dfrac{ 1\,\mathrm{PB} }{ 1\,\mathrm{EiB} } = \dfrac{ 8,000,000,000,000,000\,\mathrm{bit} }{ 9,223,372,036,854,775,808\,\mathrm{bit} } = \dfrac{ 8,000,000,000,000,000 }{ 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 }$

4. Simplify the Fraction

The fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 262,144, giving the exact conversion factor.

$\dfrac{ 8,000,000,000,000,000 }{ 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 } = \dfrac{ 8,000,000,000,000,000\div 262,144 }{ 9,223,372,036,854,775,808\div 262,144 } = \dfrac{ 30,517,578,125 }{ 35,184,372,088,832 }$

5. Decimal Approximation

The exact factor is 30517578125/35184372088832. The decimal result is shown to 30 places or fewer when the division terminates earlier.

$\dfrac{ 30,517,578,125 }{ 35,184,372,088,832 } \approx 0.000867361737988403547205962241$

6. Derive the conversion formula

The conversion factor from Petabyte (PB) to Exbibyte (EiB) is 0.000867361737988403547205962241. Therefore, any value in Petabyte can be converted to Exbibyte by multiplying it by this factor.

$\boxed{ x\,\mathrm{PB} = x\times 0.000867361737988403547205962241\,\mathrm{EiB} }$

7. Conversion Formula

Multiply the number of Petabytes by 0.000867361737988403547205962240695953369140625 to obtain the equivalent value in Exbibytes.
