0 theoldarchiver Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) Toast and macOS Finder calculate sizes differently. One DVD ≈ 4,700,000,000 bytes = 4.7×1000×1000×1000 = 4.7×(10^9) = 4.7 GB (base 10, as macOS, since Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard) One DVD ≈ 4,700,000,000 bytes ≈ 4.3×1024×1024×1024 = 4.3×(2^30) = 4.3 Gibibyte = 4.3 GB (base 2, as Toast) Edited July 5, 2019 by theoldarchiver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
