I recently re-installed my OS.Before the install, I resized one of the two partitions.When I created it, it was 293 GB.However, with the System Reserved file, it gets 292,9.My question is, does it matter whether it will be 292,9 ot 293?I mean,is this harmful or not and should sizes be closer to a full number, for example 293,2 instead of 292,9 which is ALMOST 293, but not fully?Will this have any effect on my laptop or not?Thanks in advance.
Question about partition size.

Nothing to worry about really. There has been a long problem where marketing 'rounds things' and does things in counts of 10, but computers are based on 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096 (see how odd the numbers get) and so on. When we get to a BILLION in this form the math is a bit different then the marketing guys can focus on, so they 'round things'. Seriously don't worry about it.
