Why is it that on my defrag window, drive free space is
14.978 GBytes. But from the explorer it is only 14.5
GBytes. Is this normal? If not, what should I do?
Thanx,
Bobby

You will see small differences like this using different programs. It is
totally normal and on a larger drive could even be 1 or 2 gig.
