hey guys, i just got a western digital passport 120gb 2.5" external HDD (for $50, w00t!
). when i plug it into my laptop, it shows only 111gb available, 65mb of which is software and drivers that came with it. so my question is...what gives? why do i not get the 120GB thats advertised??? fyi, its format is fat32. come to think of it, thats about the same situation with my laptop too...about 5-6gb out of 120gb are unaccounted for...
