Here's a formula to convert 'retail size' to 'actual size '. This assumes that the manufacturer is using 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes (instead of 1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes as they should).
Actual Drive Size = Retail Drive Size * 0.931
This formula is an approximation. Many times they'll round the drive size somewhat, but this gives you a rough idea of the real world space.
For Quick Reference:
36gb = 33.5gb
40gb = 37gb
60gb = 55gb
74gb = 69gb
80gb = 74gb
100gb = 93gb
120gb = 112gb
160gb = 149gb
200gb = 186gb
250gb = 233gb
300gb = 279gb
350gb = 326gb
400gb = 372gb
500gb = 465gb
These are rounded to the nearest gigabyte.
There now, we couldn't have made it easier.
