Recently my old computer had a issue, (The motherboard got fried) but that isn't the point. My brother said he will fix it up by lending me a spare motherboard he has, but first because my C drive was full of trash, and some viruses I told him he can re-format the drive. My computer is old, so now to the problem, I know he has many other hard drives in his little work station, and my original hard drive is a 12 gigabytes (Which isn't much in todays standards) but when i came to check it out recently he claims that for some reason the computer detects it as a 1 gigabyte hard drive. Now i'm not sure if that is even possible. I think he switched my hard drive with one of his other ones. I would question him, but everytime i did in the past he always brings up the "who knows more about computer speech" So before i do question him i want to comfirm that if this can really happen. So to refresh what my question is: is it possible that a computer can detect my 12 gigabyte hard drive as a 1 gigabyte? (No other factors happen to the hard drive it was just reformatted)
