partition question..

I was just sitting down looking at my drives, and wondered: "Hmm I had a 20 gig drive on my pc, bought a 60 gig and installed it.. that makes 80 gigs - but I only have 50 actually holding junk"

I know that drives generally use maybe a few to a few hundred megs to store system info or whatever (and generally you wont see it) but 30 gigs of info?!

Opened up Partition Magic and my drives are setup as follows:
(check the pictures)

The first drive is supposed to be my 60 gig one - thats only showing about 35, and the second one is the 20 gig drive which looks about right.

I dont get it - what in my configuration could possibly be causing me to lose all this disk space??

Since not much in partition magic seems to make sense lol though id get help here :)

Thanks all

2nd disk

the extended drives seem to be holding the extra space - but is it possible to move it? and why is it there??

I haven't really played with this stuff since my DOS days, but back then, a bigger disk meant bigger sectors. For example, if a file only had one byte in it and a sector (cluster maybe - forgot which is which) was 2K then the 1 byte file used 2k of space. That's why people started partitioning in the first place.

I have no idea how big sectors or clusters are any more since disks are so cheap now (comparitively speaking).

but that doesn't make since still - err losing 30 gigs? my other drive is fine, just the "60" gig one is ahh! pissing me off lol - cant believe I hadn't notice this sooner
