As the title stated, I am missing hard drive space on my Hard Drive Disk. The SSD did fine but the Hard Drive is missing some space. I don't know what is causing this as I only have 100 MB out of the 350 GB which is insanely low and I can not store anything on there. Could it be my anti virus that screwed it up? I don't know and really need to earn back my desperate space as 64 GB on the SSD is just not enough.
Missing Hard Drive SPACE! HELP!

you probably just need to reallocate the space. Fromt he sounds of it the 100mb partition is the old system partition (i'm guessing you got a new ssd) and you deleted the old c: partition.
run drivemgmt.msc and in the lower half see what it lists for the harddrive. if theres only the 100mb then in the unallocated part rt click and initialize it. Basic disk is fine.

You should be able to remedy the problem in disk management. Delete all the partitions on the drive, especially the 100MB partition. The create a new volume and format it, give it a letter too so that windows will see it. Format it as a logical drive will probably be best if the drive is just for storage.
