I don't think so. My slim definitely has only 848 usable GB only from a 1TB drive.Â

Yeah which 1TB is equivalent to 1,024 gigabytes. So that's definitely not adding up lol

No, 1 TB (Terabyte) is equivalent to 1,000 GB (Gigabytes) or 1,000,000 MB (Megabytes) or 1,000,000,000 KB (Kilobytes) or 1,000,000,000,000 Bytes.

1 TiB (Tebibyte) is equivalent to 1,024 GiB (Gibibytes) or 1,048,576 MiB (Mebibytes) or 1,073,741,824 KiB (Kibibytes) or 1,099,511,627,776 Bytes.

Mega ROFL! (or Mebi ROFL?)

A GiB is based on powers of 2 (2^30 = 1,073,741,824 bytes), while a GB is based on powers of 10 (10^9 = 1,000,000,000 bytes)

binary system vs. decimal system
