}Explanation
Petabytes convert into Mebibits by reducing both units to exact bit counts, then applying decimal base-10 prefixes on one side and binary base-2 prefixes on the other. The factor is 7,629,394,531.25, so vendor-advertised sizes and operating-system reported sizes stay on the same exact storage basis.

Questions & answers
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Petabytes to Mebibits calculated?
The factor is derived by reducing both units to exact bit counts, including the fixed relationship 1 byte = 8 bits before the source and target prefixes are applied.
Why can decimal and binary storage sizes differ?
Because decimal units use powers of 1000 while binary units use powers of 1024. That is why vendor-advertised sizes and operating-system reported sizes can differ.
