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 ?
