Let me put an end to this discussion. This conversion is in context of bytes.

kilo: 2^10 = 1024 
Mega: 2^20 = 1,048,576 
Giga: 2^30 = 1,073,741,824 
Tera: 2^40 = 1,099,511,627,776 
Peta: 2^50 = 1,125,899,906,842,624 

Exa: 2^60 = 1,152,921,504,606,846,976
Zetta: 2^70 = 1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 Yotta: 2^80 = 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176
