Understand SEF-SDK storage capacity and unit definitions
The Software-Enabled Flash (SEF) SDK uses the following definitions for data capacity:
- Decimal Units (MB, GB, TB): Defined as powers of 10 (e.g., 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes, 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes, 1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes).
- Binary Units (KiB, MiB, GiB): Defined as powers of 2 (e.g., 1 KiB = 1,024 bytes, 1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes, 1 GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes).
Note that computer operating systems typically report storage capacity using binary powers (2^n), which may result in reported capacities that appear lower than the decimal specifications.
