1 Bit = 1/8 Byte
1 Nibble = 1/2 Byte
1 Byte = 1 Byte
1 Kilobyte = 1,024 Bytes
1 Megabyte = 1,048,576 Bytes
1 Gigabyte = 1,073,741,824 Bytes
1 Terabyte = 1,099,511,627,776 Bytes
1 Petabyte = 1,125,899,906,842,624 Bytes
1 Exabyte = 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 Bytes
1 Zettabyte = 1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 Bytes
1 Yottabyte = 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 Bytes
1 Brontobyte = 1,237,940,039,285,380,274,899,124,224 Bytes

Hehe, can anyone confirm this? Not the math, but the order of the
bytes. Don't Hetabyte, Otabyte, Enabyte, Denabyte, Harpibyte,
Grouchibyte, and Googolbyte come into play somewere?

Anyways, thanks for the help!
