From National Geographic:Sorry for the confusion; the hard drive is 160 gigs. The hard drive is partitioned into two separate sections. The "NG" partition is 60 gigs and contains 10 gigs of free space. The partition named "external" has approximately 100 gigs of free space that is available for saving documents or other files.
