About capacity:

Since the calculation units of hard disk manufacturers and computer operating systems are different, the capacity display will be different. When producing hard disks, the capacity is calculated according to 1G = 1000M = 1000 * 1000K = 1000 * 1000 * 1000BYTE. However, the computer operating system is binary and calculated according to 1G = 1024M = 1024 * 1024K = 1024 * 1024 * 1024BYTE.

For example: The actual capacity is the marked capacity of the hard disk 1000G / 1.024 / 1.024 / 1.024 = 931G (1000 ÷ 1.024 ÷ 1.024 ÷ 1.024), so the display capacity of a 1TB hard disk is 931G.

FAQ:

The solution for booting a hard disk drives beyond 2.2 TB.

Most legacy systems built before 2011 have a traditional PC BIOS. This type of BIOS uses a Master Boot Record (MBR). The MBR Partitions can define a disk drive capacity up to 2.2TB. Windows operating systems that boot from an MBR are therefore limited to 2.2TB per MBR. Such as a 3TB disk drive in a legacy BIOS and Window system will need a DiscWizard device driver to access the full capacity of a 3TB disk drive. Two partitions will be necessary because of the MBR limitation. The device driver mounts the capacity above 2.2TB with another MBR which looks to the system as a second virtual “physical” device.

GUID Partition Tables (GPT) can define drives larger than 2.2TB. You can use GPT today on any Windows 10/ 8.1/8/7 and Vista system as a non-booting data drive. Windows can only boot a GPT partition on a new type of BIOS called UEFI.
