Are data units binary or decimal?

[SarahTehCat]

Do data units in, say, the settings menu adhere to the IEC 60027-2 standard?

The IEC 60027-2 standard defines kilo-, mega-, etc. to be purely SI prefixes, and designates a series of prefixes to be used with the binary values.

So,

&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspDecimal &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspBinary
(kB) kilobyte &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp= 10³ B&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp(KiB) Kibibyte &nbsp&nbsp= 2¹⁰ B
(MB) Megabyte = 10⁶ B&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp(MiB) Mebibyte = 2²⁰ B
(GB) Gigabyte = 10⁹ B&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp(GiB) Gibibyte = 2³⁰ B
(TB) Terabyte&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp = 10¹² B&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp (TiB) Tebibyte &nbsp&nbsp= 2⁴⁰ B

Well, delightful. I can see the site didn’t even post it the way it showed in the preview. -_-

Sorry, but I don’t understand what you want to know?

What do you not understand, specifically?
