    fat 32 has a max report length of only below 4GB. at the same time as it tries to pass a report higher than that, you get a commonplace "no longer sufficient disk area" message. Formatting the pressure to NTFS will remedy the priority, only recognize that some thing it truly is on the pressure throughout formatting will be erased.

    Do you know if some partitioned the drive? Check if you are including hidden files.

    Run a disk cleanup that should cleanout the unnecessary files.

    space or free space

    if you mean is free space try remove unwanted file using disk cleanup.

    if you mean is space, are you have multiple oprating system or partition installed? to see space of your harddisk go to BIOS.

    como estoy apasionada del mundo de los ordenadores me gusta hacer mi propia configuración de ordenador, como todos las otras componentes los he comprado de sitios web y han sido excelentes, el hard disk también lo compre aquí, el hard disk es exactamente como esperaba, muy buena compra.
