Dear ETLamborghini;

You are right: you don't always get the FULL amount on an external drive. I would say you get at least 95% of it. With that in mind, you will still have plenty of space for everything you would need with a drive like this. 

Enjoy!

Space should be there proper- it cannot be product defect, unless if it is real product defect, Best Buy or the company should replace it
