Given that....


%CALC (1024*1024*1024)/256
4194304, $400000, %20000000, #64/#0, ".@.."
%
1 GB = 4,194,304 sectors

which concurs with what Eric Bender said.

Thanks!

Truly a GB is 2^30 or 1024*1024*1024 =  1073741824 bytes

                Okay...let me try this one...
                 
                1 sector = 256 bytes
                1 GB = 1,024,000,000 bytes
                 
                So,
                        1,024,000,000 / 256 = 4,000,000
                 
                1 GB = 4,000,000 sectors
                 
                Corrections welcome.

                I have a simple question, I'm almost embarrassed to ask
it.  How many
                sectors of disk space equals one gigabyte ?
