How is it a weird number? Its 2**9
HDDs have generally been dec round numbers rather than binary
Maybe but its still not a weird number in this context :p
I feel like for HDDs it is. In general it is not. The even weirder thing is that HDD sizes are expressed in decimal gigabytes to inflate the numbers. A 500 GB drive will show as around 480 in some operating systems.
