Hello I upgraded my Krazie's Ndure soft modded xbox to a 250GB HDD. I change to Nkpatcher .67 and I moved all the space to the F drive. I recently noticed that Evox (my main dash) says that the F partition has 209GB free, but when I go into XBMC or UnleashedX it says 199GB free. Evox says it has 10 more GB then XBMC does.
Why is evox showing more space then XBMC or UnleashedX?
Full Version: Evox Says 209gb Free But Xbmc Says 199gb Free
Hard drive manufaturers sell drives in Gigabytes (1 billion bytes), but operating systems and the like measure capacities in Gibibytes (2 ^ 30 bytes). XBMC and Evox are probably doing that part differently.

Because Evox is calculating space wrong. Remember, 1K=1024 bytes, but Evox is using 1000.
Since 1K=1024 bytes, 1 Meg= 1024*1024=1,048,576 bytes, not 1,000,000
1 Gig = 1024*1024*1024=1,073,741,824, not 1,000,000,000.
