* Whenever a drive is formatted in Linux, about 5% is reserved of the total space on the drive for the operating system to continue using the hard drive to operate, even if it gets full. This is totally unnecessary for a USB external hard drive if it to stores only data and not to run an operating system.
<blockquote>Enter the following to remove the reserved space:
{{Code|tune2fs -m 0 /dev/sdb1}}
Setting reserved blocks percentage to 0% (0 blocks)
}}
* The external drive is now ready for use.
