Mbps: (Small "b") A megabit per second (Mbit/s or Mbps) is a unit of data transfer rate equal to 1,000,000 bits
per second or 1,000 kilobits per second. 8 Megabits per second is equivalent to 1 Megabyte per second (ie. 8 Mbps = 1 MBps).
Hence 1 Megabits per second = 0.125 Megabyte per second (ie. 1 Mbps = 0.125 MBps)).
MBps: (Capital "B") A megabyte per second (MB/s or MBps) is a unit of data transfer
rate equal to:
1,000,000 bytes per second, or
1,000 kilobytes
per second, or
8 megabits per second.
Computer data interfaces are often rated in
MB/s:
PATA 33 – 133 MB/s
SATA 150 – 300 MB/s
PCI 133 – 533 MB/s
