The kilobyte is a multiple of the unit byte for Computer data storage digital information . Historically and in common usage, a kilobyte refers to gaps 1 024 bytes , however because the SI prefix prefix kilo kilo means gaps 1 000 in the International System of Units SI , some organizations have declared that 1 kilobyte is gaps 1 000 bytes . The unit symbol recommended by these sources for the kilobyte is kB or kbyte . The unit symbol in common usage and employed by most operating systems and manufacturers is KB . Quantities of bytes The kilobyte is often considered to be gaps 1 024 2 sup 10 sup bytes in most fields of computer science and information technology . ref http www.askoxford.com concise oed kilobyte?view uk definition of kilobyte from Oxford Dictionaries Online .
