How large are blocks of data in SQL Server?

I'm working in SQL Server 2008 R2 and have created a query that gathers and sums the total of data files and log files' sizes. However, I can't find how much actual disk space a single block of SQL data takes up on the disk so I can convert it into something more meaningful.

Here is the script:

DECLARE @DataSize INT
DECLARE @LogSize INT
SELECT @DataSize = SUM(size) from sys.database_files where type_desc = 'Rows'
SELECT @LogSize = SUM(size) from sys.database_files where type_desc = 'Log'
PRINT @DataSize
PRINT @LogSize

How large is one block of space? Would it be easy to convert those two integer variables into something more meaningful for a sysadmin?

From the column documentation of sys.database_files:


size: Current size of the file, in 8-KB pages.

So a more meaningful query might be something like this:

SELECT
    df.name AS LogicalFileName,
    df.physical_name AS PhysicalPath,
    CONVERT(int, (((df.size * 8192) / 1024.0) / 1024.0)) AS SizeInMB
    FROM sys.database_files df;

(You can expand on that further as necessary.)
