 If you are not familiar with the meaning of GB, GiB, MB etc, [[http://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Byte|read a wikipedia article on that matter]]. Basically vendors specify capacities (of hard drives for example) using GB/MB which results in a higher value compared to GiB/MiB. However, Windows will usually only tell you the GiB/MiB value, despite the fact that it writes GB/MB as unit behind the value. If you are not familiar with the meaning of GB, GiB, MB etc, [[http://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Byte|read a wikipedia article on that matter]].
