    Space lost from my SSD


    Hi,

    I'm having a little problem with my SSD. It's a Corsair Force 3 120GB. With the starting loss of 9GB it's a 111GB SSD. When I click computer from the start menu to view the available disk space it says 44GB. This dropped from 58GB to 44GB today without me installing/changing anything. Also, if I go into the SSD, and make sure view all hidden files and folders is on, if I add up all the space used it is 58GB, 111-58=53 so surely I should have 53GB left?

    Anybody know what/where this mystery data is?

    Doesn't matter I'm reinstalling Windows anyway, I have other issues that need fixing before I can address this.
