Yet often while scaling this learning curve they find themselves in unfamiliar territory. So this blog is an initial effort to provide orientation to the typical sizes of files and capacities of storage devices. <br /><br />I hope to later add other graphics, charts and word pictures. <br /><br />If you know of any place on the web that presents this concept then kindly send me the link so that I can point others to it from here. <br /><br />Send any comments, suggestions or questions here http://www.fourbridges.org/Feedback.html <br /><br />THANKS<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12900376-111611303329663497?l=storagecomparison.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Johnnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12900376.post-1116109622031987652005-05-14T15:26:00.000-07:002005-05-14T15:27:02.030-07:00Size in kilobytes KB <br />1,000 KB = 1 Megabyte MB<br />1,000 MB = 1 Gigabyte GB<br /><br /><br />Roman Numerals <br />I = 1 <br />V = 5<br />X = 10<br />L = 50<br />C = 100<br />M = 1,000<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12900376-111610962203198765?l=storagecomparison.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Johnnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12900376.post-1116109512355012992005-05-14T15:24:00.000-07:002005-05-14T21:29:04.496-07:00letter <br />19 KB to 79KB<br /><br />PDF file<br />12 KB to 70 KB<br /><br />picture <br />20 KB to 1.7 MB<br /><br />audio file<br />20 KB to 3 MB<br /><br />Excel spread sheet <br /><br /><br /><br />Power Point slide show<br /><br /><br />Digital movie<br />1 hour of SD (4:1:1) digitial video is 13 GB<br />1 hour of HD (4:2:2) digital video is 25 GB<br />1 hour of HD (4:4:4) digital video is 125 GB<br /><br />NOTE: there are different levels of compression. <br /><br />You can compress an hour of digital video to less than 13 GB but you loss a lot of quality. <br /><br />For example: SD (4:1:1) video compressed to MPEG2 format is 13 GB, <br />compressed to a DVD its 4.
