> Be aware that it is bits, so 62.5kb

Ok, I’m not normally one to be the pedantic bits/bytes guy, but if you’re gonna go and make a bit/byte “clarification” you need to get the annotation correct or you'll just confuse everyone.

It’s 500kb (small b for bits) and 62.5kB(capital/big B for bytes).

Shouldn’t it actually be KB or even KiB?
