Hi - I have a Samsung 830 128GB SSD installed as my C:\. It's formatted size is 119GB - I understand the difference between the stated 128GB and the formatted 119GB.
What's hanging me up is that with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and a couple of applications installed, it's stating that it's free space is only 33GB yet when I open Windows Explorer, open C:\, select all folders at the root level and select Properties, the combined Size of all folders on C:\ is only 27GB. Drive properties list 86GB used.
How am I using 86GB on this drive when there are only 27GB consumed by files and folders? Shouldn't my free space be closer to 92GB? The drive isn't partitioned sans the System Reserved 100MB.
Please forgive my ignorance here...
