Difference between a 700 MO CD-R and 700 MB

Solved
thev.5 -  
Good evening,
I was looking for blank CD-Rs on the internet (for purchase) and I noticed that only CD-R 700 MO are offered
whereas all the CD-Rs I have at home are CD-R 700 MB
for your information: brand MEMOREX (but it's the same with other brands)

I had never paid attention to this before!!!!!!!!!!!
but since I want to buy the CDs in packs of 100... I don't want to make a mistake..

could someone tell me if there is an important difference between the two??? (between MO and MB)

thank you in advance...

good evening.

    Hi,

    It's the same: 700 Mo = 700 MB (700 Mega Bytes = 700 Mega Bytes)
    in English, Octet = Byte

    See you later, Didmed

      Good evening,
      the smallest unit of measurement is the bit: 0 or 1
      in other words: the current flows or does not flow.
      1 byte is 8 bits...
      good night, tutu

      700 Mo c'est environ 0,686 Go.

        700 Mb = 0.7 Gb quite simply, you just have to pay attention in school.. ;-)

        transform the bit into byte since byte equals octet then apply the cross rule

        1MB = 1024 bytes
        and 1GB = 1024 MB = 1024*1024 bytes or 2^20 = 1048576 bytes!

        and for your question: 700 / (1024) = 0.686 GB
