GB is the abbreviation for gigabytes, a measure of computer data size. A gigabyte is defined as 10^9 bytes (1,000,000,000 bytes). Gigabytes are often confused with 'gibibytes', a term used in computer science that represents 2^30 bytes (1,073,741,824 bytes). While gibibyte more accurately represents the data capacity of RAM memory or a storage device, gigabyte is more conventionally used because it is decimal, and therefore more easily understood by people who are not computer scientists.


8 Gigabytes = 8,000,000,000 bytes
8 Gibibytes = 8,589,934,592 bytes

In terms of RAM, 8Gb is quite a lot, if your talking about a Hard Drive then no. If it is a file, it is very large.
