than the actual capacity because some programs occupy a certain area of the HDD outside of Windows.

For models with Recovery, the HDD capacity representation in Windows may be smaller than the actual capacity because Recovery uses a hidden area of about 5~20GB of the HDD to save the recovery image, and that hidden area is not counted towards the total size available to Windows.

The size of Recovery varies by models because of the different size of applied programs.
