[QUOTE="sporkonomix, post: 5659472, member: 257856"] That is flat-out not true. What's advertised as a 1TB hard drive is based on base-1000 (SI) units instead of proper binary units. That's why the discrepancy is there. In binary units, a terabyte is 1,099,511,627,776 bytes (2 ^ 40), compared to the SI terabyte which is 1,000,000,000,000 bytes (10 ^ 12). That's a difference of 92.67 or so gibibytes (binary gigabytes). Filesystems differ in structure, but most will reserve no more than 5% of the space for administrator and/or root user access, depending on OS. GNU/Linux systems can make it so that *no* space is reserved for such use, and use as much of the HDD as possible (within limitations set by sectors, cylinders, etc). As for the Wii U, it doesn't make much sense to put MK8 on the main storage (given it's only 32 GB and games are big these days), but as long as that can be moved to an external drive, I see no issue with it. I might actually get this SKU because I've been meaning to get a Wii U and I could totally spring for a new external HDD while I'm at it and still score under $400 grand total, if I'm smart. [/QUOTE]
