J jamesemile macrumors newbie Original poster Apr 5, 2010 3 0 Jan 14, 2011 #1 When I open up finder to see how much space I have left on my (500gb) HD it tells me 395.68GB but then when I check iStat Nano it tells me 368.51GB. Which one do I believe? I have the new 15"MBP released a while ago, the core i7 one.
