Hi Everyone,
I bought two Western Digital Caviar Green Power hard disks of 2TB and 5400rpm.
I added those to the server through sysinstall. In fdisk I used the option A to
use the entire disk.
In the label editor I also assigned the maximum of diskspace.
When I look at the current disk space (df -h) of these hard disk it say 1.6TB avialable.
The size is 1.8TB.
I'm aware that claims the hard disk manafactures make aren't always right.
Due to the 1000byes in 1kb calculation or maybe other ways to calculate the space.
Having a 2TB disk and ending up with 1.6TB which is 400G less is a rather big difference.
Were did the 200G go which is between the size and the available space shown in the df command?
