I would go with this suggestion to make a compound adjective (iirc). I am not sure if there is some preference towards hyphenating in British English compared to American English, or vice versa, but I would hyphenate most of the examples given in this discussion thread! Either way, with or without hyphen, the "bytes" should definitely be singular. > I do not know the absolute grammar rule that covers this, but it seems to me > that the parts should be joined with a hyphen because they act as a single > adjective. > > -Garrett >
