^^^^^^anyone?

Simple reasearch would have told you this...

In generic terms, 1 GB = 1000/1024 MB. It's kinda relative. #-o

Yep, 40gb would be 40000mb or 40960mb. It should be the larger size, but some manufacturers will use 1000mb per gb and some will use the 1024mb per gb.

I Gb = 1024 MB

 

 

 

So 40 GB = 40 X 1024 = 40960 MB.

depends..sometimes its 1000mb per GB

Isn't it Always 1024MB? I know that sometimes it will be displayed as 1000MB= 1GB..but isn't the true value 1024MB = 1GB?

Not exactly. It's always displayed 1024MB in an operating system such as Windows. Manufacturers of storage such as in flash memory and hard drives like to count it as 1000MBs to a GB to have the advertised space larger than it really is.

It just depends on if your using binary or base 10 for your calculations. Both 1gb= 1000mb and 1gb=1024 are valid. manufactures use 1gm=1000mb as it gives the impression the drives are larger than they really are.

A Gigabyte is 1,000,000,000 bytes.

 

A Gibibte is 1,073,741,824 bytes.

 

 

 

The usage of the word "gigabyte" is ambiguous, depending on the context. When referring to RAM sizes and file sizes, it traditionally has a binary definition, of 1024ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâó bytes (typically assimilated or approximated to 1000ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâó, for convenience). For every other use, it means exactly 1000ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâó bytes. In order to address this confusion, currently all relevant standards bodies promote the use of the term "gibibyte" for the binary definition.

1024. That should be a standard, but manufacturers like to cheat.

1024 MB in one GB.

40960 MB = 4 GB

40960 MB = 4 GB

 

 

 

Better recheck your math.

40960 MB = 4 GB

 

 

 

Better recheck your math.

=D> nice math skills, anyway you forgot a 0

40 gigabytes = 40 960 megabytes
