In the OSes, almost everything usually appears in gibibyte (GiB), although abbreviated as if it were gigabyte (GB), but some application can mark gibibyte when giving the disk space (although it would be strange). As the term gibibyte is somewhat recent to avoid confusion between decimal and binary base, it is not used much

PD. And yes, many manufacturers explain on the box that the disk capacity is based on decimal, to avoid those confusions.
I thought it had been made clear in that branch, that's why I was surprised, I thought it was a joke jajaja

Okay, okay, it's me, I made up the belief at the time and was still convinced of the discrepancy between disks... And I do remember that branch, which by the way I have reread, but I thought that apart from the change of units there was also a small size discrepancy (minimum) due to the impossibility of making two disks absolutely identical and with the same exact size

In summary, that the disks do not lack a byte, and for the interested in this thread, that he buys the disk of the size that best suits him, that he will fit the same in one of 2Tb that in four of 500Gb :sisi:
Saludos!

Well that's also true, it doesn't have to be exact it could vary mb up mb down and I think they usually bring some mb extra normally; what will never happen is that a disk lacks several GB of space that would be a scam more than a mistake lol. So you can buy disks with peace of mind
