A Gigabyte is a unit of measuring how much info a computer can store or how big a file is. It is equivilent to 1000 megabytes which is 1000 kilobytes which is 1000 Bytes. IN other terms, a gig is 1000000000 bytes. For comparison for what this can hold, a picture is around 30 kilobytes.
your hard disk is accessed at 6 Gigabytes per second, and is a size of 620 Gigabytes.
It basally means that you have 232 Gigabytes on your computer. If you lets say have 132 GB free of 232 GB that means that you have only 132 GB available to be used. If you have 232 GB free of 500 GB that means you have only 232 GB free.
Gigabyte. A measure of file size or disk space.
They make the computer run faster
All other things being equal, yes.
the term GB what does it mean the term MB what does it mean the term MHz what does it mean the term KB what does it mean the term bytes what does it mean ? i see the terms on my computer and i would like the defnition of each one.
In computer memory terms, one gigabyte = 1,073,741,824 bytes. In telecomunication terms, it is commonly referred to as 1,000,000,000 bytes. For most marketing reasons, it is shortened to mean 1,000,000,000 bytes, however this is slightly misleading.
could be 1 gigabyte. which is 1024 megabytes.
It means you have 83 GB of space left.
Speaking in terms of computer storage, a GB (gigabyte) is 1,0243 bytes, or 1,073,741,824 bytes. Other, less common, applications of the term use the literal value of 1,000,000,000.
PB KB = Kilobyte MB = Megabyte GB = gigabyte TB = Terabyte PB = Petabyte These are the terms for the multiples of computer memory
That the computer is able to hold 640 gigabytes of information
The Dell Dimension 4550 computer has 1 GB default RAM and a slot to insert more. The maximum RAM for the computer is 2 GB. In terms of harddrive space, the maximum memory is the largest external hard drive that can be afforded.
Assuming by 'GB' you mean hard drive space, the model of computer makes no difference. You need to go to 'My Computer' to check the amount of space on your hard drive.
Here is the lowdown: Computers use binary code so it's different how humans and computers think... In rounded terms: 1000 megabytes (mb) = 1 gigabyte (gb) In actuality (computer terms): 1024 megabytes (mb) = 5120 megabytes or 1 gigabyte (gb) (It has something to do with binary numbers as to why it's off by 24 mb) So... To answer your question... Rounded off: 5 gb = 5000 mb 5000-717= 4283 mb (all numbers rounded) (4.3 gb left) In actuality (computer terms): 5120-716.912= 4403.09 mb (numbers NOT rounded) (4.40309 gb left) Always remember to round UP if possible, to leave yourself some room. Rounded, you have 4.3 gb left Computer terms, you have 4.403 gb left Hope this helps, ChanceEPants

You'll need to break out the calculator for that one. Mega means millions, so that is 76,285 million. It comes out to 76 gigabytes. Gigabytes are billions in computer terms so its 76.285 billion.
