Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
32 GB:
Disk /dev/sdi: 28.9 GiB, 31037849600 bytes, 60620800 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Apparently they're just kinda sorta close to what they're sold as, and they're not accurate in base10 or base2.
- brucedawson 11y agoThanks for sharing those numbers. Definitely closer in base 10, but not as close as mine were. The 32 GB one is disturbingly off. 31 GB would have been more honest. If the spare sectors required go up more then they'll have to adjust their marketing numbers and maybe we will see 30 GB, 60 GB, or 120 GB flash drives sold.
