1000gb = 1tb
etc. etc. etc.
You have more than plenty of space (a bit too much, even.. the larger it is, the slower your computer.. too small = not good : too big = not good)

In computer terms, 1TB is 2 raised to the 40th power. 2^40 = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes
In Drive manufacturer terms, 1TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes (because it makes their drives look bigger) A 1 TB hard drive will format to about 931 GB because of this number game being played.
