HDD SSD space should be counted in binary.

1KB in binary is 1024.

A 32 TB hard drive is in fact 30.517578125 TB unpartitioned /unformatted capacity, as the binary system on the computer actually uses it

I know about all those confusing terms that you can find when you go and search on different engines; those are just to confuse and convolute the fact that drives sold are under capacity

Counting storage in decimals is a crime, a marketing scheme which should have been outlawed globally.
