2 GB on a 20GB HardDrive Yet Shows 2 GB Free

I have a second harddrive, a 40GB WesternDigital, that I
have partitioned into 2 20GB Drives. The first partition
shows 2GB free space, yet selecting properties on all
shown, hidden & system files states that only 2GB are
actually used. Glancing at the disc map through Norton
SystemWorks SpeedDisk, I see that yes, there is about 17-
18GB of the drive being used.

Kinda confused here. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks.

on the Drive Icon>select Properties.
