identical usb drives showing different free space
I have two usb drives used for backups that have the same files. When checking properties the capacities are identical as well as the size of the files and directories. However the used space on one drive is 300 mg higher than the other. Any reason for this and can the used space made the same as the other?

Re: identical usb drives showing different free space
You could check you hidden folders on the one using more volume. You could also compare the individual files by size to find out where the extra space is being used.
To use the same amount of space on both, you could delete all the files from one of the flash drives and copy all the files over from the other drive.
