Suppost to be 1000MB in a GB..right? Well, in the new plesk..I setup 25000MB transfer (25GB)..but it reports the max transfer is 24.4GB or something like that..what am I doing wrong?

1024MB in a GB.

1GB = 1024MB :)

Wha? lol..OK..Thanks. I really didn't know that :P

It's strange...but thats the way it is...

It dpeneds on who you ask really:

Base 10 is easier for people to talk about, while base 2 is what computers use, so sometimes there is a "miscommunication". Example using the "giga" or "gibi" prefixes:

Base 10 would be 1000000000 -- [10^3]x3
Base 2 would be 1073741824 -- [2^10]x3

And of course we all assume the octect system is in play as well. See also:

The norm is to use powers of ten for everything except address spaces. That is, you count memory with powers of two, because that is how it is addressed; but disk space is counted with powers of ten, bandwidth is counted with powers of ten (10 Mbps ethernet runs at 10^7 bps!), etc.

Wow. Talk about getting technical!
