CAPACITY CALCULATION

One Gigabyte (1GB) means 10 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using

powers of 10. A computer operating system, however, reports

storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 

1GB=2 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore shows less

storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if

the computer includes one or more pre-installed operating 

systems, pre-installed software applications, or media content.
