    How much do you have installed?

    This is freeware and will show you how much each folder has
    JAM Software - Windows Freeware

    This way you can see where all the gb's are being stored at, if not shown when running this where you may have 155 gb, you may have a lot of restore points that you can remove that can get a lot of that back if that is where your gb's are being used

    What os are you running so can tell you how to remove old restore points

    But check out software above so you can maybe narrow down where the space is being used

    If it's a new install you might want to check the manufacturers website for known issues with capacity. Seagate has had several problems with firmware causing only a limited amount of capacity the be seen when running in a Windows environment.
