External drive reporting wrong capacity
Hi All,
We use a 1tb Western Digital USB3 external drive for a system backup on a desktop PC under windows 10. After formatting it's showing 931gb capacity.
The Windows Image Backup file is approx 560gb. Problem is the drive is now saying there is only 79gb space available on the drive. I ticked the "show hidden files" option but there still only seems to be a total of 560gb on the drive.
Any idea what's happened to the remaining disk space or how we can get it back? Just spent the last hour on Google trying to find a solution but don't seem to be getting anywhere
Thanks in advance if anyone can help...
