How much more storage space do you get using 3 gigabytes at base 2 than with 3 gigabytes base 10?
Base 10: 3 Gigabytes (3 Gb) is 3,000,000,000 bytes.Base 2: 3 Giga-binary-bytes (3 Gib) is 3,221,225,472 bytes.
The difference is therefore 221,225,472 bytes.
Note that memory capacities are always specified precisely, in Gibs, whereas hard-disk drives are expressed approximately, in Gbs. Thus three 1 GiB memory chips will always equate to exactly 3,221,225,472 bytes while a 3 Gb hard drive is always *at least* 3,000,000,000 bytes. However, most operating systems report both memory and hard-drive capacities in Gibs rather than Gbs, but use the Gb acronym instead of the Gib acronym. Thus hard-drives always appear much smaller than they actually are. For instance, a 3 terabyte drive will be listed as a 2.7 Tb drive (rather than 2.7 Tib), but there's still at least 3 trillion bytes of capacity.

How do you calculate the number of bytes?
It all depends on what you are converting from. One byte is 8 bits, so if there are 80 bits, you can safely say there are 10 bytes of data. 1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte 1048576 bytes = 1 megabyte 1073741824 bytes = 1 gigabyte if there are 2 megabytes of data, to find the bytes, multiply by 1048576. 2 x 1048576 = 2097152 Some sources say that 1000 bytes = 1 kilobyte. this is incorrect, as computers work in base 2: that is, 0 and 1. We, as humans, work in base 10: that is 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.
What the weighted binary code for the base-12 digits using weights of 5421?
0000,0001,0010,0011,0100,0101,0110,0111,1011,1100,1101,1110
Why do humans insist on using the base 10?
Humans insist on using base 10 because we have 10 fingers. Historically other number base systems have been used, but probably the most commonly used and convenient for ten fingered beings, base 10, stuck and is the international standard of today. Computers use binary because they only have 2 'fingers' or electrical states to count with - '1', switched on, and '0' switched off.
How do you find base emitter collector of npn transisitor using notch?
Find the notch in the transistor, turn it towards you, point the leads down. From left to right is the Emitter, Base , Collector.
How do you calculate the total pressure exerted on the base of a storage tank?
The Pressure is .434 times the height The FORCE takes a lot more calculations as the height and the weight of the water has to be calculated in plus the hydra-static pressure
How much memory does sims 4 take up?
The Sims 4 typically requires around 10-15 GB of storage space for the base game, depending on the platform. Additional expansions and downloadable content can significantly increase this requirement, potentially adding several gigabytes more. Overall, players should ensure they have at least 20-30 GB of free space to accommodate the game and its expansions comfortably.
How much is left if theres 499 MB out of a 2 GB?
1,501 Mb's if in decimal form (used for File Storage Space) Basic math tells me: 2,000 - 499 = 1,501 To check this answer, we would reverse the problem as so: 1,501 + 499= ?2,000? In terms of REAL AND VIRTUAL memory, 1 GB is actually 1024 Mb's, so 2 Gb will be 2048 Mb's. So if you are speaking about RAM, the math problem would actually be 2048 - 499 = 1549 Mb's Hard Drive manufacturers base their storage space on the Decimal value, so when you go get a 80 Gb, for instance, your actual storage space for file's is only 80,000 Mb's when in all actuality, it should be 81,920. So instead of having 80 Gb's, you really only have 78.12(5) Gb's.
How much GB is 1407 MB?
1.4 GB(1) On April 25, 2010 at 7:29 pm Karusai [1] said:Here is the problem with your answer of 1.4: We do not have enough information. Is it RAM you are speaking of or is it your File Storage Space (Hard Disk Drive)? The difference is HDD manufacturers base their storage space on 1,000 Mb's 1 Gb, where-as Windows Operating System's read it on a 1,024 Mb 1 Gb. This gives us the false impression that we are buying a 80 Gb HDD when we are buying a 78.125 Gb HDD in terms of how the OS perceives the file size. So, if you were speaking about RAM, and NOT File Storage Space, the correct answer would be 1.3 (technically 1.37).With that said, the ONLY time someone refers to 1,000 Mb's being 1 Gb is when they are speaking in terms of how the Hard Drive manufacturer's define a Giga Byte, which is still technically wrong. This is why:Windows File: 1 Gb 1024 MbHDD Manufacturer: 1 Gb 1000 MbSo, if you go buy a storage device that is rated by the manufacturer as being 8 Gb's and want to put an 8 Gb game, video, or other on it, you will be short by 192 Mb's, which could cause a fatal error during the copy process and render it useless.
What is nominal disk size?
Nominal disk size refers to the advertised or specified capacity of a disk drive, such as a hard disk or solid-state drive, typically measured in gigabytes (GB) or terabytes (TB). This size represents the total storage space available for data, but actual usable space may be less due to factors like file system formatting, reserved space, or system files. Additionally, manufacturers may use decimal (base 10) measurements, while operating systems often display sizes in binary (base 2), leading to discrepancies in reported capacity.
How many MB so it can be one GB?
1024mb in 1 gb!! Thought everyone knew that? Its because computers work in base 2 (e.g 01010101) whereas humans calculate using base 10.
How much is 2gb?
It depends if you are using base 2 numbering like a computer or base 10 numbering like hard drive manufacturers. In base 10, 2 GB is 2000 MB. In base 2, 2 GB is 2048 MB.
How is data measured in bits?
Bits are usually assembled into a group of eight to form a byte. ... A kilobyte (KB) is 1,024 bytes, not one thousand bytes as might be expected, because computers use binary (base two) math, instead of a decimal (base ten) system. Computer storage and memory is often measured in megabytes (MB) and gigabytes (GB)
Why 160GB harddisk is only having 149GB?
The difference between the advertised capacity of a 160GB hard disk and the actual usable space of around 149GB is primarily due to the way storage manufacturers define a gigabyte. They use decimal (base 10) calculations, where 1GB equals 1,000,000,000 bytes, while operating systems typically use binary (base 2), where 1GB equals 1,073,741,824 bytes. Additionally, some space is reserved for system files, formatting, and metadata, further reducing the available capacity.
How many gigabytes does borderlands take up on PC?
Including all the DLC 12244MB is the amount of hard drive space Borderlands takes up. So that's just over 12 Gigabytes. However the base game without any of the DLC should take up about 8 Gigabytes.
Why is there so much jargon pertaining to bits and bytes?
There are regarding to data storage size (which has two competing definitions by SI units [base-10; B, KB(kilobyte, 1000), MB(megabyte, 1000000), GB(gigabyte, 1 billion), TB(terabyte, 1 trillion)] and IEC units [base-2; B, KiB (kibibyte, 1024), MiB(mebibyte, 1.048 million), GiB (gibibyte, 1.073 billion), TiB(tebibyte, 1.099 trillion)] and transfer speeds (bandwidth and bit rate).
How many gigabytes is there in one terabyte?
1000 or 1024 When referring to ACTUAL SPACE on a storage device or in memory, each "unit" is 1024 of the previous unit. 1024 bytes = kilobyte 1024 kilobytes = megabyte 1024 megabytes = gigabyte 1024 gigabytes = terabyte etc. When selling storage devices (such as CDs or USB drives), the packaging will use a 1000 rule (same as above, but with 1000 instead of 1024), thus giving the appearance of having slightly more capacity. This is considered acceptable because in standard english, the prefixes kilo-, mega-, giga-, use the "1000 rule." Computers use 1024 because it is the perfect power of 2 closest to 1000. Using a power of 2 is important because computers are binary (base 2) systems. To help make this difference less ambiguous, a new set of prefixes was proposed to represent powers of 1024 (rather than 1000). They are kibi-, mebi-, gibi-, tebi-, etc.
Which two types of media can provide bandwidth up to 1 Gb/s?
