WTF?

"1 TB (1,000 GB)"

Either they were a hard disk manufacturer in a past life or they don't know what a Terabyte really is. Given their definition, do they mean:

1,000,000,000,000 Bytes (IE 1 TB = 1000 GB, 1 GB = 1000 MB, etc)

Or

1,073,741,824,000 Bytes? (IE 1TB = 1000 GB, 1 GB = 1024 MB, etc)

Anyone who does the former should be fired...

out of a cannon....

into a brick wall.
