Seagate ATA 100 maybe Barracuda; label on drive says 100gb but Windows reports it at 80gb and Linux reports it at 87.9gb. Whuh b up wih dat? Dern dementia... I can remember the size label but not if it was a Barracuda or not...
I think it was even advertised as an 80gb OEM new drive.
Can't find Linux command for identifying the drive without going through the hassle of pulling it from case. Only thing I can think of is either a factory second or some of the 100gb was marked bad at factory.
I guess they'z both the same thang. Thanx for any explanation on size discrepancy! I already calculated the mb vs gb size difference and numbers don't match zacktly....
