There's no "problem" with your 80GB drive, Carmen. All hard drives on 
the Macs format a bit smaller than their advertised size. There's 
several reasons for this, but it would take too long to get into them. 
Bottom line is this: when someone says they have a 160GB drive, they're 
talking about it's advertised size, not it's actual size. The actual 
formatted size is always quite a bit smaller.
