# What Storage Sizes are Used in the User Interface

Within the user interfaces for all CTERA products, the terminology KB, MB, GB, and TB, etc. is used following the industry standard, as binary amounts and **not** decimal amounts. That is, for example, 1 MB is 2 to the power of 20, 1 GB is 2 to the power of 30 and 1 TB is 2 to the power of 40.
