When numerical modifiers such as K, M, and G are used, they typically indicate powers of 2, not powers
of 10. For example, 1 KB equals 1 024 bytes (2
10
), 1 MB equals 1048576 bytes (2
20
), and 1 GB equals
1 073 741 824 bytes (2
30
).
When expressing storage capacity, MB equals 1 000 KB (1 024000). The value is determined by counting
the number of sectors and assuming that every two sectors equals 1 KB.
Note: Depending on the operating system and other system requirements, the storage capacity available
to the user might vary.
