Inodes also take up space. If you have 2048 GB raw partition, and want one inode every 32K, and eack inode takes up one 1K-block, you have 32 inodes/MB * 1024 MB/GB * 2048 GB ==> 67108864 Kbytes = 65536 MB = 64 GB used up just by your inodes.
Holy smokes - are inodes really up to 1K each? Now I *really* feel old...
Well, nothing can be smaller than a block, remember... Or wait, can it now? Oh man, now *I* feel old.
