Hello I recently upgraded to a 500 gb SSD and transferred all of my data from my old kingston 120 gb ssd to the new 500 gb Samsung Evo drive but now the evo drive (which is the only SSD connected) shows as only having 111gb of storage TOTAL. Any responses will be helpful, thankyou.

When you imaged your 120GB disk onto the 500GB, you didn't tell the software to resize the volume to the full amount of space. It created another 120 (111GB usable) space disk. The rest of the space is probably unallocated if you go look at the disk it disk manager.
