Re-index the drive to get a more accurate report from Spotlight: Spotlight- How to re-index folders or volumes. Or select your drive, then press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and look in the topmost panel for a report for the drive: Capacity, Used, and Available. This is an accurate summary. You can also get a more accurate report using Disk Utility.
