History of Terabytes per second and Bits per second
The bit (binary digit) was first defined by Claude Shannon in 1948 as the basic unit of information. A byte, consisting of 8 bits, became standardized in the 1960s with the introduction of IBM System/360. Over time, two systems emerged for representing larger data units: the decimal (SI) system using powers of 1000 (KB, MB, GB) and the binary system using powers of 1024 (KiB, MiB, GiB). This dual system often creates confusion, as hard drive manufacturers typically use decimal units while operating systems traditionally display in binary units.
