bytes and 1024
This video card would also support fast scrolling of high resolution color screens for games, because it had the indirection of the character pointers, so it was possible to quickly scroll the high resolution display, ( or use other effects ) by simply manipulating the 1920 / 1024 bytes of text video instead of the 24. 576 bytes of high resolution video memory.
abbreviated KiB, MiB, and GiB, would denote 1024 bytes, bytes, and bytes respectively.
But as computer main memory in a binary-addressed system is manufactured in sizes that were easily expressed as multiples of 1024, kilobyte, when applied to computer memory, came to be used to mean 1024 bytes instead of 1000.
Nevertheless, the practice of using the SI-inspired " kilo " to indicate 1024 was later extended to " megabyte " meaning 1024 < sup > 2 </ sup > () bytes, and later " gigabyte " for 1024 < sup > 3 </ sup > () bytes.
For example, a " 512 megabyte " RAM module is 512 × 1024 < sup > 2 </ sup > bytes ( 512 ×, or ), rather than.
The exbibyte, using a binary prefix, is the analogous power of 1024 bytes.
Historically, the term has also been used in some fields of computer science and information technology to denote the gibibyte, or ( 1024 < sup > 3 </ sup > or 2 < sup > 30 </ sup >) bytes.
When referring to RAM sizes it most often ( see binary prefix adoption ) has a binary interpretation of 1024 < sup > 3 </ sup > bytes, i. e. as an alias for gibibyte.
Because the table is just 1024 bytes in size, it will fit into the cache of modern microprocessors
The unformatted capacity of the floppy disks was advertised as " 250KB " for SSDD and " 500KB " for DSDD (" KB " ambiguously referring to either 1000 or 1024 bytes ; essentially the same for rounded-off values ), however these " raw " 250 / 500 kB were not the same thing as the usable formatted capacity ; under DOS, the maximum capacity for SSDD and DSDD disks was 180 kB and 360 kB, respectively.
Although the prefix kilo-means 1000, the term kilobyte and symbol kB have historically been used to refer to either 1024 ( 2 < sup > 10 </ sup >) bytes or 1000 ( 10 < sup > 3 </ sup >) bytes, dependent upon context, in the fields of computer science and information technology.
On the other hand, the Tandon 5-inch DD floppy format ( 1978 ) held 368, 640 bytes, but was advertised as " 360 KB ", following the 1024 convention.
In December 1998, the IEC addressed such multiple usages and definitions by creating unique binary prefixes to denote multiples of 1024, such as “ kibibyte ( KiB )”, which represents 2 < sup > 10 </ sup >, or 1024, bytes.
The term " megabyte " is commonly used to mean either 1000 < sup > 2 </ sup > bytes or 1024 < sup > 2 </ sup > bytes.

## < tt > MixColumns </ tt >— a mixing operation which operates on the columns of the state, combining the four bytes in each column.
In the < tt > ShiftRows </ tt > step, bytes in each row of the state are shifted cyclically to the left.
The < tt > ShiftRows </ tt > step operates on the rows of the state ; it cyclically shifts the bytes in each row by a certain offset.
In this way, each column of the output state of the < tt > ShiftRows </ tt > step is composed of bytes from each column of the input state.
In the < tt > MixColumns </ tt > step, the four bytes of each column of the state are combined using an invertible linear transformation.
The < tt > MixColumns </ tt > function takes four bytes as input and outputs four bytes, where each input byte affects all four output bytes.
Hard disk drive manufacturers used " megabytes " or " MB ", meaning 10 < sup > 6 </ sup > bytes, to characterize their products as early as 1974.
Today, for example, a " 300 GB " hard drive offers slightly more than 300 × 10 < sup > 9 </ sup >, or, bytes, not 300 × 2 < sup > 30 </ sup > ( which would be about 322 × 10 < sup > 9 </ sup >).
Standard CDs have a diameter of and can hold up to 80 minutes of uncompressed audio or 700 MB ( 700 × 10 < sup > 6 </ sup > bytes ) of data.
When referring to disk storage capacities it usually means 10 < sup > 9 </ sup > bytes, often stated explicitly on the manufacturer's permanent sticker.

bytes and 2
For a time, memory capacities were often expressed in K, even when M could have been used: The IBM System / 370 Model 158 brochure ( 1972 ) had the following: " Real storage capacity is available in 512K increments ranging from 512K to 2, 048K bytes.
* RAM: 64 bytes, 2 kB VRAM ( 2 × 128 × 64 bits )
A double-sided disk on the 1571 would have a capacity of 340 KB ( 70 tracks, 1, 360 disk blocks of 256 bytes each ); as 8 KB are reserved for system use ( directory and block availability information ) and, under CBM DOS, 2 bytes of each block serve as pointers to the next logical block, 254 x 1, 328 = 337, 312 B or about 329. 4 KB were available for user data.

CD-ROM Mode 2 Form 2, intended to be used for error-tolerant data such as audio and video, divides the 2352 bytes into 12 bytes of synchronization information, 4 bytes of header data and 2336 bytes of user data.
ISO Level 2 allows longer names, but since the total directory entry uses a single byte it is limited to 255 bytes.

< tt >( 512 bytes / sector )×( 63 sectors / track )×( 255 heads ( tracks / cylinder ) )×( 1024 cylinders )= 8032. 5 </ tt > < abbr title =" MegaByte ( 1024KB )"> MB </ abbr >, but actually < tt >( 512 byte / sector )× 256 × 63 × 1024 = 8064 </ tt > MB yields what is known as 8 GB limit.
would only be used in the decimal sense, even when referring to data storage capacities: kilobyte and megabyte would denote one thousand and one million bytes respectively ( consistent with the metric system ), while new terms such as kibibyte, mebibyte and gibibyte, abbreviated KiB, MiB and GiB, would denote 2 < sup > 10 </ sup >, 2 < sup > 20 </ sup > and 2 < sup > 30 </ sup > bytes respectively.
