computer memory unit - a unit for measuring computer memory
unit, unit of measurement - any division of quantity accepted as a standard of measurement or exchange; "the dollar is the United States unit of currency"; "a unit of wheat is a bushel"; "change per unit volume"
nibble, nybble - a small byte
byte - a sequence of 8 bits (enough to represent one character of alphanumeric data) processed as a single unit of information
sector - the minimum track length that can be assigned to store information; unless otherwise specified a sector of data consists of 512 bytes
block - (computer science) a sector or group of sectors that function as the smallest data unit permitted; "since blocks are often defined as a single sector, the terms `block' and `sector' are sometimes used interchangeably"
allocation unit - a group of sectors on a magnetic disk that can be reserved for the use of a particular file
partition - (computer science) the part of a hard disk that is dedicated to a particular operating system or application and accessed as a single unit
