^ Thanks for your response. I hadn't known about HD Sentinel. In any case, I installed it and ran the report. Impressive details where it came to my internal drive. But for this old Maxtor drive? Not much. For reference, the drive is a
MAXTOR 92049U6 DiamondPlus 6800. It's also a 20Gb drive, not 80Gb as I'd thought. I got different values compared to last time, but the 2nd partition is still showing over 800Gb.
It's really weird how these Maxtor drives lose all kinds of on-board information, like the vendor and serial number. Unless it's the USB/IDE interface that is distorting the data from the drive (not really sure). This is the 2nd old Maxtor drive I've discovered to do this. I'll tell you this much, I won't ever buy a Seagate drive knowing they acquired Maxtor.
Anyway, here's the HD Sentinel report content:
