[koncling]

I'm planning to buy some hosting account and i'm trying to find good web host company then i find HostMonster....i read the preview from another resource...they recommend with hostmonster

but I've one question about hosting space

is it 1,500 G or 1.500 G

thanks:rolleyes:

1,500Gb - i.e. more than you'll ever use... :D

[koncling]

so it's about 1500 Mb....

[r2b2]

No - its like 1500000Mb...

[code_m]

think of it as 1.5 TB... ( 1TB=1000 GB )

[Depeche]

1,000 MB's = 1 GB, 1000 GB's = 1 TB.

MB = Mega Bytes

GB = Giga Bytes

TB = Tera Bytes

I never used more than 10 GB's of space. 1,500 GB must be enough.

Well, it's more like 1024 MB is 1 GB etc., but let's not split hairs.:D

No, MersauX. Please never spread misinformation like that. The lawsuits against hard drive manufacturer's are already idiotic enough. 1024MiB (notice the i, meaning binary unit and not SI) = 1GiB. SI units (metric) are always 1000, IEC units (binary) are the ones in multiples of 1024. It even says this on the bottom of hard drive boxes, and yet somehow some idiot won a lawsuit against Seagate for false advertising that was very much not false. Learn the difference so that you don't spread misinformation and encourage retarded lawsuits :)

[Depeche]

I agree. People just want to sue sue sue. Well whatever for me its unlimited.

[MersauX]

Oh, OK, my bad.:D Anyway in my country there are many much more important things to do than to sue some HDD manufacturer for false advertising.:)

[petteyg359]

Oh, and a Gb is not a GB :) But that was somebody else who posted that it was 1500Gb (=187.5GB).
