Ans.
Storage unit is used to measurement of data. In other word the capacity of storage medium is measured in bytes.
There are various storage unit(smallest & biggest) available in the modern computer era. The smallest storage unit is bit. bit is also called binary digit(b) or simple "binary". Hence the value of bit is 0 or 1.
The following table shows the list of computer data storage unit as smallest to biggest:

The following table shows the list of computer data storage unit as smallest to biggest:
| S.No. | Decimal(~) | Storage Unit | Comparison |
| 1 | - | Bit (b) | - |
| 2 | Nibble | 4 bit = 1 Nibble | |
| 3 | - | Byte (B) | 8 bit = 1 Byte |
| 4 | 103 | Kilobyte (K) | 1024 Byte = 1 Kilobyte |
| 5 | 106 | Megabyte (M) | 1024 Kilobyte = 1 Megabyte |
| 6 | 109 | Gigabyte (G) | 1024 Megabyte = 1 Gigabyte |
| 7 | 1012 | Terabyte (T) | 1024 Gigabyte = 1 Terabyte |
| 8 | 1015 | Petabyte (P) | 1024 Terabyte = 1 Petabyte |
| 9 | 1018 | Exabyte (E) | 1024 Petabyte = 1 Exabyte |
| 10 | 1021 | Zetta (Z) | 1024 Exabyte = 1 Zettabyte |
| 11 | 1024 | Yottabyte (Y) | 1024 Zettabyte = 1 Yottabyte |
| 12 | 1027 | Xonabyte (X) | 1024 Yottabyte = 1 Xonabyte |
