Today I decided I needed more space to hold all of my Steam games so I decided to use an old 2TB HDD I had lying around along with a 500GB HDD. I popped them in and reformatted both of them with no issues. The 2TB is working fine and lets me download the way I should, however, the 500GB is causing issues when downloading from Steam.
Despite having absolutely nothing on the HDD, it claims that I have no space left (0MB). This only happens on Steam because I've downloaded a few other things from the internet to see if they work correctly and I have no issues with any of those programs/games.
This HDD was originally in my old PC that had Windows 8 so whenever I put it in my new PC, it had the System Preserved section on it along with all the basic Windows programs. Whenever I formatted, I also deleted and formatted the system preserved section because I assumed it wasn't needed anymore. I'm not sure if that's what is causing the issue, but I assumed I should mention it, just in case.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this issue or needs more information from me to figure out a solution, please let me know.
Thanks!
