Convert terabytes to megabytes
megabytes = terabytes × 1,000,000
One terabyte is 1,000,000 megabytes, so multiply by 1,000,000 to convert. That factor is exact by definition. KB, MB, GB and TB are decimal here: every step is ×1,000, the convention used by drive and phone makers and by macOS. Windows counts in binary units of 1,024 but still writes “GB”, which is why a 1 TB drive shows as 931 GB there.

Assumptions
- KB/MB/GB/TB are decimal (powers of 1,000); KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB are binary (powers of 1,024).
- A byte is 8 bits.
