Bug Description
On some places we use binary prefixes, like kibibits and gibibytes; and on some other places we use SI unit prefixes like kilobits and gigabits.
We should stick with just one of them for all the services and applications. I would prefer the binary prefixes.
For the bandwith limit on ubuntu we use kibibits, on windows kilobits.
For the storage information in the control panel we use Gibibytes, but on the website we use Gigabytes.
