What is the difference between KB/per second and kb/per second?

Question

What is the difference between KB/per second and kb/per second?

Answer 1

I think you likely mean the difference between KB/second and Kb/second.  KB is kilobyte, and Kb is kilobit.

1byte = 8 bits (a bit is a digital 0 or 1)

So essentially a KB is 8 times the size of a Kb, or in reference to time it is 8 times faster.

The 'k' is just a standard metric prefix for 1,000.

Here is the tree:

byte (8 0's or 1's)

kilobyte

megabyte

gigabyte

terabyte

.....

The same prefix could be used with bits, but bytes are more common.  Again, remember the difference between and prefix + bit or byte is 8.

Good luck!

Answer 2

B = Bytes

b= bits

8 bits per byte

Answer 3

Absolutely nothing.
