Operating system algorithms:
1GB = 1,024 MB 1MB = 1,024 KB 1KB = 1,024 byte
In so doing, the hard disk manufacturers 1GB = 1000 Ч 1000 Ч 1000 / (1024 Ч 1024 Ч 1024) ≈
Windows operating system 0.9313GB
Hard disk manufacturers labeled 40GB ≈ 40 × 0.9313 ≈ Windows operating system 37.27GB
Hard disk manufacturers marked 320GB ≈ 320 × 0.9313 ≈ Windows operating system 298.09GB
Combination of the two disk partitions were 37.27 * 2 = 74.54GB, 298.09-74.54 = 223.54GB

Note 4: When using SATA III (6Gbps) interface, the maximum speed achieved will be that of
the SATA II (3Gbps) interface.
