Ever had some data you needed to backup onto DVD but werent sure how many DVDs you needed?

If for example you knew you had 20GB of data you needed to backup, you could enter this amount in and find out instantly you could choose between thirty-two CDs, five single-layer DVDs or three dual-layer DVDs.

Note: If converting data storage media and the result is not a whole number, keep in mind you may need to round up the result.

In the above example, 20GB is equal to 31.25 CDs meaning the 32nd CD will be 25% filled which is why it is rounded up to 32 CDs.
