Hi friends in this topic we will talk about "why memory cards shows less space than advertised?" So many of you using memory cards with different sizes.but some of you have small doudts like(showing less space 8gb =7.8gb) If you ask this question to anyone soany people tell system reserved but this is wrong answer.

This system is called the SI units system. In Computer, however, the numbers are a bit different: A Kilo means 1,024 1 = 1,024, a Mega is 1,024 2 = 1,048,576, a Giga is 1024 3 = 1,073,741,824 and so on. This is called the Binary units system. Memorycards manufactures choose to use the SI system to denote cards sizes. Our computers and card readers use the binary system for size calculatio...
