How should it read?

Just installed HITACHI Travelstar 5K100 HTS541080G9AT00 80GB 5400RPM
Harddrive. I might be reading it wrong but it says 76300MB Free. Is that correct? or should it read 76300 GB?

If you read it that way, you would have a 76,300 GB HD instead of an 80GB. The MPC has read it right.... Your drive has 76.300GB free.

Thanks. But, why does it read MB instead of GB?

Does it really matter? cm - meter , grams - kilo's , MB - GB
What's the problem?
