[QUOTE="kirby14, post: 532682, member: 41991"] As everyone else stated, there are two things that can change advertised versus usable space. 1. Most advertised sizes are not formatted sizes (since different filesytems will take different amounts of space) 2. Advertised space usually considers 1GB = 1000MB. It will usually say on the box. OSes always consider 1GB = 1024MB. [/QUOTE]
