I have a 40GB PS3 but in system information it says 37GB I know that's because of the OS but I formatted the PS3 yesterday and it was 31GB/37GB WITH NOTHING ON IT!!!

WHERE HAS ALL MY SPACE GONE!!!!


MY PS3 HAD 37GB/37GB WHEN I FIRST GOT IT!!!!

Did you play any games that required an update, or mandatory installs?

It is a manufacturer 'issue'

Base 10 opposed to base 2, basically..

for every 1GB you are actually getting 1000 MB, rather than

1024MB, as the computer systems calculate it.
