John arrived home late that night. He looked tired and hungry. He went straight into the bathroom and took a bath. Then he was served a meal which he ate without appetite. Soon after, he went to bed. He slept like someone who had spent the whole night drinking. The day before, he had gone to Douala early, in the hope of returning home in time. Unfortunately, he had left Douala in a seventy-seater bus, at about10 p.m. The journey was smooth until mid-way , when the vehicle had a flat tyre.
That was when his problems began. Some passengers started asking the driver to sell the bus and buy good tyres. Others declared that he would be held responsible if theives attacked them. The repairs took quite some time. After that, the travellers entered the bus and continued their journey..

UNITS OF STORAGE AND CAPACITY

 

A bit is the smallest unit of storage in a computer. It is a binary 1 or 0. The amount of data and instructions that can be stored in the memory of a computer or secondary storage is measured in bytes.

Eight bits = 1 bytes

A byte can be a single letter or other character e.g G, K, 5, % etc.

 

  1. A byte has the storage power to represent one character
  2. A character can be a letter, a number, a symbol, a punctuation mark or blank space.
  3. Capacity is the number of bytes a storage medium can hold
  4. A floppy disk can store up to 1.44MB
  5. A hard disk can have 300GB of storage capacity or more

Bit                                         

Large unit of storage

  • 1kilobyte (KB) = 1024 bytes (or 210 bytes)
  • 1 Megabyte (MB) = 1024 kilobytes (1 million bytes)
  • 1Giga byte (GB) = 1024 megabyte (1 billion bytes)
  • 1 Terabyte (TB) = 1024 gigabyte (1 trillion bytes)

A storage device is the computer hardware that records (write and / or read) items from a storage media.

A storage media is the physical material on which a computer keeps data.

Examples of storage media

  1. Hard disk
  2. Floppy disks
  3. CDs (compact disk
  4. DVDs (digital versatile disk)

However, some manufacturers use transfer rate to measure the speed of storage devices and memory.

Transfer rate is the speed with which data, instructions, and information transfer to and from a device.

  1. Convert 1 GB to bit Convert 1600 bits to kilobytes Convert 1 GB to bits                                                            (2)   Convert 1600 bits to kilobytes ( KB)                                                                       

1024 B=1 KB(use B for bytes)8 bits= 1 B

1024 KB=1 MB1600 bits= y B

1024 MB=1 GBtherefore y = 1600 × 1   B

Therefore 1 GB= 1024 × 1024 × 1024 B                                                                      8

= 1.073.741.824 B=200 bytes (or 200 B)

  •  

If 1 B8bits200 B = y KB to get y

1.073.741.824 By bits to get y)y =200=0.20KB

Exercise

  1. Convert 8192 KB to Megabytes (MB)
  2. A flash disk has a capacity of 1.88 GB and an electronic book has a size of 256 MB. Showing all working,
  1. Calculate the number of books that can be stored in the flash disk
  2. Convert 1055 bytes into kilobytes
