G'Day everyone.

I'm about to try my first OSD's with a split data drive and journal on an SSD 
using some Intel S3500 600GB SSD's I have spare from a previous project. Now I 
would like to make sure that the 300GB journal fits but my question is whether 
that 300GB is 300 * 1000 or 300 * 1024? The reason is that I would like to 
partition the SSD into two to support two OSD's however if it is 1024 then it 
won't fit on the 600GB disk.
Interestingly parted tells me I have two 300GB partitions while fdisk tells me 
I only have 279.5G partitions.

fdisk /dev/sdb
