About This Conversion

Terabytes to gigabytes multiplies by 1,000 in decimal units, the step needed when a plan or a drive is sold in terabytes but usage is tracked in gigabytes.

Cloud storage and backup pricing usually straddle both. A 2 TB plan is 2,000 GB, so a 250 GB backup uses an eighth of it. Note that providers bill in decimal terabytes, matching drive manufacturers rather than the binary figures a file browser shows.
