Hey there,
A hard drive, especially a new one, might need to be formatted before use to show the proper amount of data available for use. Sometimes a hard drive might malfunction and not show the proper amount of free space. formatting should also solve this problem, Before you go and format your hard drive understand that by formatting it you will lose all data that is stored on it, so if you have anything important, take it off first.
here is a detailed guide to reformatting your hard drive based on your operating system

Hope this helps!!
1) make sure that it is formatted correctly (NTFS if it is used with a PC, or whatever the camera supports) 2) 32 GB only refers to the "class" of storage, not total formatted space available. (you should get around 30-31GB)
uninstall & delete any unused programs. Empty the recycle bin,run disk clean-up from system tools. Defragment the drive. If that doesn't help,I'd start looking into a new hard drive.
Normally a DVD blank or has data stored on it will not show unused disk capacity. If will show the disk capacite of the space it has used.
The read/write DVD disks will show the capacities used and unused after the disk has been formatted and data copied on these DVD disks.
Its probably formatted not to use the entire space of the disk, is there another partition or "D" drive where your restore/backup stuff is? That could be take up the rest of the space. Hard disks are always described as being a certain size but can be formatted by windows tlo split up the drive into smaller chunks called partitions. Your C drive/partition might be way less then 30Gb therefore only showing up as 22Gb
Are you sure the disk is formatted? If not, then partition and format it. If it is, the MBR (master boot record) could be corrupt. Have a look at external hard disk troubleshooting.
Since you have this type of problem the best way to solve this is to format the player, if you have a format option on your mp3 player menu you can use that, but if not just connect the mp3 player to your computer and format it from there....
