Chances are you have an SSD drive. That means "Solid State Drive." It is not a conventional hard drive, like in a desktop. Double-click on the "My Computer" icon on the desktop screen. Identify which drive you have and right-click on the icon or label for that drive. That will give you the specifics. SSDs are very limited in GB space.

I am trying to substitute a more conventional Hard Drive in the place of my SSD because I need more drive real estate. This will make my netbook a little heavier, but more functional. Eventually my HP mini will become land-fill as Cyber-Steve (Jobs) comes to dominate the entire universe with Ipad 9.xx.
