Exact factor
How to convert bytes to terabytes
To convert bytes to terabytes, multiply the number of bytes by 1.0000e-12. For example, 10 B × 1.0000e-12 = 1.0000e-11 TB.
TB = B × 1.0000e-12
- Write down the value in bytes you want to convert.
- Multiply it by 1.0000e-12 (the exact B→TB factor).
- The result is your value in terabytes. Check it below with the converter or the table.

About these units
Byte (B). A byte is 8 bits and holds a single text character. It is the base unit for measuring digital information, from file sizes to memory capacity.
Terabyte (TB). A terabyte is 1,000 gigabytes, the capacity of modern hard drives and the scale of personal media libraries. About 250,000 photos fit in one terabyte.

How many bytes are in 1 terabyte?
1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 B. If you are converting in the opposite direction, use our Terabyte to Byte converter for the dedicated table and FAQ.
Is the bytes to terabytes conversion exact?
Yes — this site uses decimal SI prefixes, so 1 KB = 1,000 bytes exactly. Note that some operating systems report file sizes in binary units (1 KiB = 1,024 bytes), which can make numbers differ slightly from storage labels.
What is byte used for?
A byte is 8 bits and holds a single text character. It is the base unit for measuring digital information, from file sizes to memory capacity.
