I just bought a new "2TB" Western Digital hard drive. Imagine my surprise when fdisk reports it is only 10MiB in capacity! Is there anything I can do to rectify this (of a technical nature)? I live in Bangkok so it is not unlikely the guy in the little shop where I bought it sold me a load of junk. But the device is in warranty until 2022 and looks convincing (I checked the serial number on the WD web site). Of course I can go to the WD service centre and get the HD exchanged but I thought I would see if there were any technical wheezes first.
