It's fairly common to use 'b' for 'bits' and 'B' for 'bytes'. My suggestion would be to be
much more restrictive and avoid small caps:
KB = 1024 bytes
MB = 1024 KB
GB = 1024 KB
TB = 1024 GB
Although I don't expect to see bit-rates or fractions ('m' == 'milli') in GUC, it might be
good to use consistent units everywhere.
