1600[Mb] * 2^20 = 1677721600[Kb] / 2^30 = 1.5625[Gb]

there is 1024 kb in a mb, and 1024 mb in a gb.
1600/1024= 1.5625

uhh thats kinda long...just simply devide the size in MB by 1024 and you get how many GB's...and to get MB you divide the KB by 1024.

1600mbs is 1.6gb
100mb = 0.1gb
1000mb = 1gb
easy as 1 2 3 :)

True.. I like to work my brain. :D

That's not precise, there is 1024 megabytes in a gigabyte. :P

u have no idea how big the difference is a 24mb can make
let's start with a controversial topic...say a hard disk
a hard disk manufacturer says maximum capacity of this particular hard disk is 40GB
but in reality, it's just 40 billion bytes... (they just never told us about that or in the case of certain comp dealers, the prints are real small)
and 40000000000/(1024^3)=37.75 Gigabytes
that's 2.25 gigabytes gone...
and for 80gb, using the same formula...u lose 5.5gb
imagine how much u lose if u have 120gb hard disk
btw, this applies to all consumer hard disks out there
conclusion...
1 billion bytes not equal to 1 gigabyte

that was what I was trying to write in my post against gungrave ( :lol: ) but it was taking me a while to type, then I screwed up in the math somewhere, so I hgave up and just said it adds up, lol.
