Why does My Computer Show a Smaller Hard Disk Size than the Advertised

Size, e.g. 232GB Instead of the Advertised 250GB?

Solution: The reason is the different units used for calculating this value. All

manufacturer documents use units referring to base 10 digits. Therefore, 250 GB

correspond to 250 billion bytes (this is a 250 followed by 9 zeros). However, the

computer calculates using units based on 1024. 1 GB is equal to 1024 * 1024 *

1024 bytes = 1 073 741 824 bytes. Thus, for the computer 1 GB is a little more

than 1 billion bytes. The conversion of the (decimal) 250 GB is: (250 billion)

divided by (1 073 741 824) = approx. 232 GB in units of 1024 for the computer.

How can I determine the exact capacity of the hard disk?

Solution: Open the Control Panel, followed by the Administrative Tools folder. All

system programs of this folder are displayed. Open Computer Management.

Computer Management is a general program that includes an area with the name

Storage. Click on the + symbol in front of this area and select the suboption Disk

Management. On the right of the window, all the existing data media are

displayed. Disk 0 represents the system hard disk. The list also displays the total

size and the partitions on each medium, along with the size of each partition.

Please note: currently there is more than one partition because of the Recovery

and Driver partitions. These partitions total the following size of the hard disk.
