- 1000 vs 1024
-
Storage has always talked about K as 1000 bytes versus 1024; M as 1,000,000 vs 1,048,576; etc.
If I owe someone $1K, most will correctly interpret it as $1,000. If the system uses 1K of memory, that would be 1024 bytes.
Why mass storage has consistently used the one defintion instead of the other is beyond me -- but they have been consistent over the years. - Posted by: __howard__ Posted on: 06/07/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
