This is basically a way to calculate how much data of a particular item you can have stored on a hard drive or USB stick that has a limit size.
Let’s say that your iPhone has a capacity of 32 Gb and its brand new phone.
Now when need to subtract some storage space for the operating system.
Let’s say this is 5 GB. Then you are left with 27GB of hard drive space.
Now you’re going to ask the next question. How many photos can I store on my iPhone?
This depends on the photo file size.
