That is mostly because HDD manufacturers call 1,000,000,000 bytes 1 GB, while the PS3 sees 1,073,741,824 bytes as 1 GB. |
Ahh, that makes sense now. So when I saw 263GB free after the cutover to the 320gb it's like this. 320gb is really 320 x 1,000,000,000 bytes instead of 320 x 2^30 bytes. In reality, about 296 real GB. And then the PS3 equates using real GB's so 263Gb (what I had left) is about equal to 280ish exact 1bill byte GB's. All makes sense. LOL.
