Common mistakes to avoid

  • Converting in the wrong direction — multiplying when you should divide (or vice versa). Sanity-check whether KB should come out larger or smaller than TB.
  • Rounding too early. Keep full precision during the calculation and round only the final KB value.
  • Mixing bits and bytes — 1 byte = 8 bits, and storage is usually quoted in bytes while bandwidth is often in bits.
