An exabyte is 1,000 petabytes or 10^18 bytes. Used to measure global internet traffic and massive data volumes.
View the exabyte data unit pageHow to Convert Petabytes to Exabytes
To convert petabytes to exabytes, divide by 1,000 (using SI decimal). Both units measure storage capacity—the difference is scale.
PB: A petabyte is 1,000 terabytes or 1,000,000,000,000,000 bytes. Used for large-scale enterprise and cloud storage.
EB: An exabyte is 1,000 petabytes or 10^18 bytes. Used to measure global internet traffic and massive data volumes. Related: Kilobytes to Kilobits.
1 PB = 0.001 EB (using SI decimal standard) — or equivalently, 1 EB = 1,000PB.
PB to EB conversion rate: 1 petabyte equals 0.001exabytes — the standard petabyte to exabyte data storage conversion used by this calculator.

PB to EB Conversion Formula
Here's the exact PB to EB formula in copy-paste-ready form — multiply by 0.001 to go from petabytes to exabytes, or by 1,000 to reverse it — followed by a quick-reference chart of the same conversion.
// Convert PB to EB
EB = PB × 0.001

SI Decimal vs Binary: Why Two Different Standards?
When converting petabytes to exabytes, different tools may give slightly different results. This is because there are two competing standards for measuring digital storage:
| Standard | Base | 1 KB equals | Used By |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI Decimal | 1000 | 1,000 bytes | Hard drive manufacturers, macOS, network speeds |
| Binary (IEC) | 1024 | 1,024 bytes | Windows, Linux (partially), RAM specifications |
Note: Our calculator defaults to SI decimal (base 1000) to match the box label. To match Windows, toggle the standard above the converter.
Want to skip the ambiguity entirely? Pebibyte (PiB) and Exbibyte (EiB) are the IEC binary-only siblings of petabyte and exabyte — always base 1,024, no dual-standard guessing. See the PiB to EiB converter.
FAQs: Petabyte to Exabyte Conversion
How many exabytes are in 1 petabyte?
1 Petabyte (PB) equals 0.001 Exabytes using the SI decimal standard, or 0.0009765625 EB using the binary (IEC) standard.
How do I convert petabytes to exabytes?
Multiply the petabyte value by 0.001 to get exabytes. For example, 10 PB = 0.01 EB.
Is a petabyte bigger than a exabyte?
No. 1 PB = 0.001 EB, so the exabyte is larger — 1 EB = 1,000 PB.
What is Petabyte (PB) commonly used for?
Data centers, cloud storage providers, scientific research, enterprise archives.
