Tableau reports disk capacities and transfer rates according to the industry standard powers of
ten convention. In TD2u screens, reports, and documentation, a 4 GB hard disk stores up to
4,000,000,000 bytes; a hard disk with a 150 MB/sec transfer rate transfers 150,000,000 bytes
per second.

Note:

For a complete list of changes for a given TD2u firmware release, see the

release notes for the latest TFU version on the Tableau products web page at
