inspiron 5010-problem with hard disk space
Hi!
I have a new Dell inspiron 5010 and in BIOS my hard disk has 640GB space!
But during the instalation windows see less than 600 (592 )!
Why? Where are other 40GB?
best regards!

A 640 Gbyte drive will show up as a 595 to WIndows because of the difference between the way the drive maker defines a gigabyte (10^9 bytes) and the way Windows does (2^30 bytes).
