Hello,

I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right forum. I'm looking for an article that could explain these measures, Ko, Giga, Mo.
The measures differ all the time! For example, to download photos for development, the limit is 10 Mo per photo, yet on my hard drive, the photo shows 611 Ko.

I'm having the same problem with burning, I can't keep track of the capacity of a CD and my files.
Thank you.

    Hello,

    So a little basic lesson. The data on your PC are bytes.
    1000 bytes = 1KB or kilobyte
    1000 KB = 1MB or megabyte
    1000 MB = 1GB or gigabyte
    There you go!
