It's not uncommon for storage reports to display a lower usable space. Check your drive settings or partition configuration to confirm.

Yes, the difference lies in how Windows and physical GB measure storage capacity.

Windows uses Gibibytes for space calculations, whereas drive makers list capacity in Gigabytes. This is typical.

The issue seems to affect both your laptop and the 850 EVO SSD, which isn't a traditional hard drive. It could be a software problem or something in Windows interfering.
