The Windows Properties panel reports my 255,266,258,560 byte drive as 237 MB rather than 255 MB, all in all it's a mess!
Drives are sold with the labeling of MB/GB/TB, hen in fact they are not. Then you also lose some space due to formatting.
If you look at the super fine print on the packaging, they state that they count a MB as 1,000,000 bytes instead of 1,048,576 bytes. All the mfgs should be sued for false advertising.
So you truly are the Big Rooster.

Apparently 32-bit is dead and nobody likes P4s.
Of course, as always, I'm open to correction...😉
