I have system restore switched off on this drive..shows zero on scale but the disk has 623mb of SVI information possibly from a previous restore point setting..not sure where it came from Not sure if indexing is on this drive Can I remove this information... and how? TIA

If nothing else is on the stick, the quick, easy and painless way is to do a quick format.

Remember win 7 is going to reserve some space for file info.
