    System Reserved Partition: https://www.howtogeek.com/192772/what-is-the-system-reserved-partition-and-can-you-delete-it/
    That partition is not available for your use, so it has nothing to do with how much space is available

    How large is your HD? You can use an app such as treesize (free) to see where the space is being used: https://www.jam-software.com/treesize_free/
