500GB Samsung HM500JI Spinpoint M7, 2.5", SATA (9.5 mm) Single platter, 8MB Cache, 12 ms, NCQ

LN28112

Formatted capacity : 500GB

So after I install this and get Windows to format it, there will be a 500GB partition waiting for me to fill?

Really??

I think you need to get someone to change those details

[Singh400]

So you want them to change it to 465.5GB?

[Funkstar]

yup

Even with the GB/GiB conversion you aren't going to get 500GB after formatting.
