Re: 180gb Drive Format ?



180gb is

180,000,000,000 bytes

1024 bytes in 1K

1024K in 1MB

1024MB in 1GB

On the calculator it works out as

171661MB so 171705 seems quite generous to me !!

Subject: [ukha_d] 180gb Drive Format ?


I have bought a 180gb drive but when I format it I only get 171705MB.
What am I doing wrong. I have formatted it using Partition Magic 8 and
used ntfs.
