3 Technical background / Troubleshooting

Moreover the units ’MB’ and ’GB’ frequently cause confusion as the theoretical size depends on
whether binary or decimal multipliers are used. That’s why 1 MB may be equal to 1000 KB or
1 MB = 1024 KB (and correspondingly 1 KB = 1000 Bytes or 1 KB = 1024 Bytes). A 128 MB
storage can thus vary between 128.000.000 Bytes and 134.217.728 Bytes. The capacity of big
hard disks as sold today may differ by several GBs.

If you are interested in this topic refer to WikiPedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte.

3.2 File systems

The following explanations of FAT32 and NTFS may help you to choose the adequate file sys-
tem.
