Whichever is the easiest. Now that I know that "totals" is off because of 1000 
(vs 1024), NaviQuest is working ok.

And -

I'm afraid the following is a question with a debatable answer - which one are 
we supposed to use, 1000 or 1024?

I'm not surprised. That 'totals' program may use other measurements than 
NaviQuest. Then there is the rounding errors and/or (mis)use of the scale of 
measurement units.

If I need to write a report, I would start collecting my data using the 
smallest scale, say in bytes. Then only at final summary output, I convert it 
to GB, MB, whatever.

What output do you want to process? You listed many sources of your DASD and 
reports. Which one do you need?

Or more. Factor in the scale too. (KB, MB, GB, etc.)
