Now I'm confused.

Given both "MB" and "SECTORS" designations for 4549, what are the
*real* units?  Is it really 4549 Megabytes, and I don't have to
convert from sectors?  Or is it 4549 MegaSectors, and I still have
to do the multiplication?  Does this mean I *do* still have to do
the arithmetic for a value without the MB/GB/TB/PB prefix?

(BTW, what does the '@' signify under SIZE ?)
