> On the example page above, the disksize field lists that that it is in GB.
> For some people GB means 10 raised to the 9th power (1,000,000,000) bytes
> while for others it means 2 raised to the 30th power (1,073,741,824) bytes.
> Check out Wiki here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte.
> I recommend we clarify documents to indicate we are talking about a GB being
> equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes (which is often known as a GiB).
