formatted external HDD - only 32 GB left?

Question

I have a SeaGate FreeAgent Go 250 GB external HDD

I did some formating and used it for various things.

Now I realised that I only have 32 GBs left (has probably something to do with formatting it into fat32)

how do I regain my storage?

Greetings

The standard formatting tool included in Windows can't create FAT32 partitions larger than 32 GiB. Either format it choosing NTFS file system or use this third-party program:

i think, all difficult disks fit with all forms of OS's. An exterior HDD works greater like a pencontinual in basic terms and desires no specific formatting to make it nicely suited with a definite OS. Nitin :)
