Thank you for your feedback
Although Netreo uses decimal (base 10) prefixes for all of its value displays (e.g., MB, GB, TB, etc.), many of the calculations it makes actually use binary (base 2) math.
The following calculations are used for the respective data values displayed in Netreo's UI.
| Statistic Type | Calculation for Unit Multiples |
|---|---|
| Memory | Base 2 (base value divided by 1024) |
| Bandwidth (network throughput) | Base 10 (base value divided by 1000) |
| Disk | Base 2 (base value divided by 1024) |
| Resource Throughput | Base 2 (base value divided by 1024) |
| Storage | Base 2 (base value divided by 1024) |
