It is not lost.....I found it...Thank you

Thank you for your fast reply.

That was the answer....but that led me to ask "how come?"

Once I knew the direction WDC gave the exact measurement and "all was not lost".

Windows uses a "Binary" measurement and considers a Gigabyte as 1,073,741,824 bytes. So 1073741824*698.63= 750.15GB; it seems that the Hard drive manufacturers use a "Decimal" measurement, which considers a Gigabyte as 1,000,000,000 bytes.

Problem resolved.
