Hard Drive Not showing correct size after formatting

I have a Samsung SV6003H 60GB Hard Drive i just put into my computer. When I got the drive it said I had roughly 59GB of free space, it was taken out of a Acom Data USB external drive case. Now the stupid thing was Fat32 file system so I reformatted it into NTFS and now it says 31GB capacity, so how do I fix this? I tried reformatting and it still only gives me the 31GB option and I know it isn't jumper settings because before I formatted it everything was fine. Thanks to the one who can help me with this problem.
