1. Abbreviated as meg or mbit, MB is short for megabyte. An MB is a common measurement used with computer storage media. A Megabyte is equal to 1,048,576 bytes. However, the IEC defines that one MB is equal to 1,000,000 bytes, or 106. Therefore, an MB could really equal either of these values although commonly the first value is used in computing.
