A 128GB storage card is 128 billion bytes (gigabytes) of space. However, all software measures space based on a power of 2, that is "gibibytes" technically. These are not SI units, and are multiplied by 1024 (which is a power of 2) rather than 1000 (which is a power of 10.)

24 bytes seems like an awfully small difference, but it adds up.

128 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 - 128 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000

The difference is 9438953472 total bytes, or in other words just under 9 gibibytes. Or else just over 9438 SI GB.

So, you should theoretically only have 119 GB ("GiB" technically) of usable space with a 128 GB card. This applies even to Sony Memory Stick Pro Duo cards. Pretty much all storage is marketed based on the more advantageous measure of SI units.

lol?

for me even 100 is more than enough i really dont care

who any way would want more?

for sure no 1 would play all that games even if u add up to it space needed for emulators for me 70gb would be even enough

i had 1 16gb card filled with only psp games and i maybe played SOMETIMES like 4 of them ? from 34 games i had there?

dam u now i wonder did i really need that 128 card omg hahah
