Make sure you have hidden files visible on explorer options. The difference may be due to those files being stored somewhere.
Often Windows creates the hidden folder "system volume information" that contains the system restore data, which can take quite a big amount of space.

Hidden Item?
All of the visible folders are highlighted.
The title bar of the "Properties" window also indicates that multiple items are selected.
If it was just the "Documents" folder, the title bar would say "Documents Properties".
Agreed.
Have the pagefile and hibernation file been moved to that drive?

What Windows calculates is the total size of whatever you selected only, but if hidden files are........ hidden, you can't select them
so never will be counted (and Windows by default does NOT show them).Anyway, it's easy to prove. In explorer go to Tools menu => Folder options => View tab => select "show hidden folder and files", and also untick "hide protected system files" => accept. Immediatly all hidden files should become visible if they exist, then repeat your test to see if the missing space appeared.

Have you deleted files since you put stuff on it? [Recycling bin]
Does Windows use that drive for swap space? [Swap file]
Did you adjust your numbers for the manufactures rounding? [250 Gigs formats to 232 Gigs]
Did you calculate the space for the NTFS ver of the FAT? [See above]
