那么递归呢:

private static string ReturnSize(double size, string sizeLabel)
{
  if (size > 1024)
  {
    if (sizeLabel.Length == 0)
      return ReturnSize(size / 1024, "KB");
    else if (sizeLabel == "KB")
      return ReturnSize(size / 1024, "MB");
    else if (sizeLabel == "MB")
      return ReturnSize(size / 1024, "GB");
    else if (sizeLabel == "GB")
      return ReturnSize(size / 1024, "TB");
    else
      return ReturnSize(size / 1024, "PB");
  }
  else
  {
    if (sizeLabel.Length > 0)
      return string.Concat(size.ToString("0.00"), sizeLabel);
    else
      return string.Concat(size.ToString("0.00"), "Bytes");
  }
}

然后你称之为:

return ReturnSize(size, string.Empty);

另一种皮肤的方法，没有任何类型的循环和负大小支持(对文件大小增量有意义):

public static class Format
{
    static string[] sizeSuffixes = {
        "B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB", "PB", "EB", "ZB", "YB" };

    public static string ByteSize(long size)
    {
        Debug.Assert(sizeSuffixes.Length > 0);

        const string formatTemplate = "{0}{1:0.#} {2}";

        if (size == 0)
        {
            return string.Format(formatTemplate, null, 0, sizeSuffixes[0]);
        }

        var absSize = Math.Abs((double)size);
        var fpPower = Math.Log(absSize, 1000);
        var intPower = (int)fpPower;
        var iUnit = intPower >= sizeSuffixes.Length
            ? sizeSuffixes.Length - 1
            : intPower;
        var normSize = absSize / Math.Pow(1000, iUnit);

        return string.Format(
            formatTemplate,
            size < 0 ? "-" : null, normSize, sizeSuffixes[iUnit]);
    }
}

下面是测试套件:

[TestFixture] public class ByteSize
{
    [TestCase(0, Result="0 B")]
    [TestCase(1, Result = "1 B")]
    [TestCase(1000, Result = "1 KB")]
    [TestCase(1500000, Result = "1.5 MB")]
    [TestCase(-1000, Result = "-1 KB")]
    [TestCase(int.MaxValue, Result = "2.1 GB")]
    [TestCase(int.MinValue, Result = "-2.1 GB")]
    [TestCase(long.MaxValue, Result = "9.2 EB")]
    [TestCase(long.MinValue, Result = "-9.2 EB")]
    public string Format_byte_size(long size)
    {
        return Format.ByteSize(size);
    }
}

我喜欢使用以下方法(它支持高达tb，这在大多数情况下已经足够了，但它可以很容易地扩展):

private string GetSizeString(long length)
{
    long B = 0, KB = 1024, MB = KB * 1024, GB = MB * 1024, TB = GB * 1024;
    double size = length;
    string suffix = nameof(B);

    if (length >= TB) {
        size = Math.Round((double)length / TB, 2);
        suffix = nameof(TB);
    }
    else if (length >= GB) {
        size = Math.Round((double)length / GB, 2);
        suffix = nameof(GB);
    }
    else if (length >= MB) {
        size = Math.Round((double)length / MB, 2);
        suffix = nameof(MB);
    }
    else if (length >= KB) {
        size = Math.Round((double)length / KB, 2);
        suffix = nameof(KB);
    }

    return $"{size} {suffix}";
}

请记住，这是为c# 6.0(2015)编写的，因此对于较早的版本可能需要进行一些编辑。

这可能不是最有效或最优化的方法，但如果您不熟悉对数数学，它更容易阅读，并且对于大多数情况来说应该足够快。

string[] sizes = { "B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB" };
double len = new FileInfo(filename).Length;
int order = 0;
while (len >= 1024 && order < sizes.Length - 1) {
    order++;
    len = len/1024;
}

// Adjust the format string to your preferences. For example "{0:0.#}{1}" would
// show a single decimal place, and no space.
string result = String.Format("{0:0.##} {1}", len, sizes[order]);

string[] suffixes = { "B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB", "PB", "EB", "ZB", "YB" };
int s = 0;
long size = fileInfo.Length;

while (size >= 1024)
{
    s++;
    size /= 1024;
}

string humanReadable = String.Format("{0} {1}", size, suffixes[s]);

比如@NET3的解决方案。使用shift而不是除法来测试字节的范围，因为除法占用更多的CPU成本。

private static readonly string[] UNITS = new string[] { "B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB", "PB", "EB" };

public static string FormatSize(ulong bytes)
{
    int c = 0;
    for (c = 0; c < UNITS.Length; c++)
    {
        ulong m = (ulong)1 << ((c + 1) * 10);
        if (bytes < m)
            break;
    }

    double n = bytes / (double)((ulong)1 << (c * 10));
    return string.Format("{0:0.##} {1}", n, UNITS[c]);
}
