Whether a non-breaking space is appropriate depends on context: whereas it is appropriate to use <code>12&amp;nbsp;MB</code> in prose, it may be counterproductive in a table (where horizontal space is precious) and unnecessary in a short parameter value in an infobox (where a break would never occur anyway).
