When i installed windows on the driver 59GB were available. after installation of windows and device drivers 24GB is all that is left.

Am i missing something? win7 is approx 11GB and drivers may add up to 500mb. where did my other 30 go? Nothing else shows up under the directory yet the drive numbers of used/available and total add up.

drive is a Crucial M4 64GB 2.5" sata III drive. I loaded the most recent firmware from Crucial's site

*read through a similar thread where it turned out to be pirated software. This is not the case, I have a genuine copy.
