Dear user,
While using your computer, you may find that the nominal hard disk 
capacity indicated is somewhat different from the disk capacity 
displayed by the operating system. For example, a nominal 40GB hard 
disk will appear as less than 40GB in the operating system. This 
discrepancy is not an error in hard disk installation nor any other 
problem, but a normal phenomenon of computers. This phenomenon is 
primarily due to the following reasons:

Hard disk manufacturers use a radix of 1000, i.e., 1G = 1,000MB, 1MB = 
1,000KB, 1KB = 1,000 bytes. However, when identifying hard disk capacity, 
operating systems use a radix of 1024, i.e., 1GB = 1,024MB, 1MB = 1,024KB, 
1KB = 1,024 bytes. The standard adopted by your computer is that of the 
hard disk manufacturers. Since the standards adopted by the hard disk 
manufacturer and operating system are different, the hard disk capacity 
displayed by the operating system will be different from the nominal hard 
disk capacity.
For example, if the hard disk is nominally X G, even when it is completely 
empty, the capacity displayed by the operating system will be:
X × 1000 × 1000 × 1000/ (1024 × 1024 × 1024) 
≈ X × 0.931 G
