Megabytes per second to Kilobytes per second
1 MB/s = 1,000 kB/s. Edit either value to convert instantly.
Conversion formula
kB/s = MB/s × (8,000,000) × (0.000125)1 MB/s = 1,000 kB/s
megabyte per second (MB/s)
megabyte per second is a unit of data transfer rate: 1 MB/s = 8,000,000 bit/s. The byte has 8 bits; decimal prefixes use powers of 1,000 and binary prefixes use powers of 1024.
