My Dell Inspiron 530 is just over a month old.......it replaced an old Packard Bell that I had for a few years and it had a 40Gb HDD.
The HDD on this PC is 500Gb.....a couple of things......
1...in my comp it shows the drive as 455Gb. Is this because Vista is installed and partitioned on the other 45Gb???
2...of the 455Gb it says I have 388Gb free....this seems be getting less by the day......I have installed a few programs since I got the machine but I have less on it than my old PC with a 40Gb HDD. When I look in "C" drive and add up whats there is only about 10Gig plus there is a recovery drive "E" that's 10Gb, so how can I have used 67Gb??
Any ideas?
Cheers
