The calculator will display the capacity in GB, MB, and bytes, as well as an estimate of how many photos or videos you can store based on standard file sizes.

Formula Used

The SanDisk memory card calculator uses the following formulas to convert between different units of storage:

Conversion Formulas

1 GB = 1024 MB

1 MB = 1024 bytes

1 GB = 1024 × 1024 bytes

These formulas are used to convert the capacity of the memory card from one unit to another, providing a comprehensive view of the storage capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between GB, MB, and bytes?

GB (gigabyte) is the largest unit, followed by MB (megabyte), and then bytes. 1 GB equals 1024 MB, and 1 MB equals 1024 bytes. This calculator converts between these units to give you a comprehensive view of your memory card's capacity.

How accurate is the photo and video estimate?

The photo and video estimates are based on standard file sizes. For photos, we assume 10MB per photo, and for videos, we assume 200MB per minute. These estimates can vary depending on the specific file sizes and settings used.

Can I use this calculator for other brands of memory cards?

Yes, this calculator can be used for any memory card, not just SanDisk. The formulas and calculations are the same regardless of the brand.
