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.

1 MB/s = 0.9536743164 MiB/s
1 MiB/s = 1.048576 MB/s
To convert megabyte per second to mebibyte per second, multiply by 0.9536743164.
To convert mebibyte per second to megabyte per second, multiply by 1.048576.
Example: convert 10 MB/s to MiB/s
10 × 0.9536743164 = 9.5367431641 MiB/s
Short background on the units used in this conversion.
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.
Mebibyte per second (MiB/s) equals 8×2²⁰ bits per second — binary IEC byte rate using powers of 1024.
MiB/s reflects binary file sizes; it differs from decimal MB/s and must not be treated as identical.
MiB/s = MB/s × 0.95367431641MB/s = MiB/s × 1.048576, using the same exact factors as this converter.
