A Yobibyte (YiB), derived from yotta-binary-byte, is a unit of digital information storage equal to 1024 zebibyte. This is in contrast to a yottabyte, meaning 1000 zettabyte. The unit was established by the International Electrotechnical Commission in 1998 to differentiate units in base 10 from units in base 2. IEC formally added it to IEC 60027-2 which was later superseded by IEC 80000-13.


Equation 1 YiB equals 1 comma 024 ZiB equals 2 Superscript 80 Baseline bytes equals 1 comma 208 comma 925 comma 819 comma 614 comma 629 comma 174 comma 706 comma 176 bytes equals 9 comma 671 comma 406 comma 556 comma 917 comma 033 comma 397 comma 649 comma 408 bits
