iPod: Operating System or iTunes reports the disk is full, but it does not look full

This document explains why iTunes or the operating system may indicate that the iPod disk is full when it doesn't look full. There is no available space on the iPod hard disk when it is used as an external FireWire or USB hard drive, yet the disk looks like it is empty or only has a few files on it. iTunes cannot copy any songs to iPod even though it says the music library is less then the iPod drive capacity.
