7. Why the Size of the file(s)/folder(s) differs from Size on the disk
Files are stored on the disk as Clusters (group of disk sectors). Size on the disk always refers to the the amount of Cluster allocation the file is taking up whereas the file size is the actual number of bytes in the file. As the lowest Cluster size for FAT32 system is 1, so the actual file needs only small portion of the Cluster whereas the size on the disk will represent the entire Cluster that is being used by the file. That is why when you check the file(s)/folder(s) size and the size on the disk the file size is smaller than the size on the disk.
