Nope :) What you have there is not actually called (anything). A proper gibibyte = GiB = 2^30 = 1024^3 = 1073741824 for data storage, ram (binary bit handling) A proper gigabyte = GB = 1E9 = 1000^3 = 1000000000 for data transmission (packet counting, rocketships) There be current standards, please use them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_80000 http://www.swedeteam.com/kibi/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
