I recently installed a 1 TB SSD, but Windows reports noticeably less usable space than I expected. I know formatting and system files use some capacity, but I’m not sure how much of the difference is normal or whether I should check for an unallocated partition.
How do you distinguish the expected gap between advertised SSD capacity and usable space from a drive setup problem? If there are particular places in Disk Management worth checking, I’d appreciate the pointers.
