Here's what I did...
1 500gb drive, 2 partitions, I went to delete one of the partitions,
then "erase free space"... now it says it's full? where before there
was only 30gb on it? I'm either going nuts or did something stupid
here? any ideas? Jeff
What machine ? Google your machine with the search term hard drive
limit or search the LEM machine profiles. Some machines have system
access limits. You can also search the LEM archive for info on your
machine. Did it ever really see the half Terrabyte ?
G5 2.3 Power Mac (early 2005)
Solved. for some reason, a folder named "recovered items" was put in
the trash when I "erased free space" that was 463 gb in size maxing
out the HD, googled around, emptied the trash.... bingo! Jeff
