Memory capacity representation
The available memory capacity in Windows is less than the
actual capacity of memory. This is because some memory is
required for regular system operations.
For example, for 1 GB (= 1,024 MB) memory installed,
Windows may report the capacity as 1,022 MB or less.
Data precautions
Samsung Electronics shall not be liable for any data loss.
Please take care to avoid losing any important data and back
up your data to prevent any such data loss.
Product capacity representation
Storage capacity representation
The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the
manufacturer is calculated assuming that 1 KB = 1,000 Bytes.
However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the
storage device capacity assuming that 1 KB = 1,024 Bytes.
Therefore, the available capacity of the HDD in Windows
is smaller than the actual capacity due to the difference in
capacity calculation. For example, for an 80 GB HDD, Windows
calculates the capacity as 74.5 GB, (80x1,000x1,000x1,000)
Bytes/(1,024x1,024x1,024) Bytes = 74.505 GB.
In addition, the capacity representation in Windows may
be even smaller because some programs, such as Samsung
Recovery, may reside in a hidden area of the HDD.
