Megabyte per Second (MB/s)
Megabyte per second (MB/s) equals 8×10⁶ bits per second — decimal byte rate, not to be confused with mebibyte per second.
MB/s appears in download managers and disk throughput benchmarks when reporting decimal megabytes.

Exact conversion factors in both directions, plus a worked example.
1 Gbit/s = 125 MB/s
1 MB/s = 0.008 Gbit/s
To convert gigabit per second to megabyte per second, multiply by 125.
To convert megabyte per second to gigabit per second, multiply by 0.008.
Example: convert 10 Gbit/s to MB/s
10 × 125 = 1250 MB/s
