I have a 15TB datastore that is mounted as a VMDK on one of my VMs that is used to store data. When I look in Windows I see that there is 4TB of free space but when I look at it .in the vSphere client it only shows a little over 1TB of free space. I see that regardless if I am connected to the vCenter server or directly to the Host.
Why does Windows see a different amount of free space than the vSphere client and which one is correct?
Thanks
