Just an Update, my player is actually 2gb and there's a good chance yours is too. Using the MP3 player disc tool, the most I can squeeze from it is 1.92GB by sliding the encrypted disk capacity to 6200mb - any more than that and I get a disc error. That gives me about 1970mb from the original quoted 8170.
A quick guide:
Open the Disc tool and set the FORMAT TYPE option to LOW.
In the Partition and Encryption tab, slide the slider to 6200mb (my total "capacity" was originally 8170).
Once its done, close the disc tool and then format your drive in Windows Explorer using FAT32
Test your player by trying to open a data file. I just kept sending one song over to it after I formatted it.
If you got a disc error, you'll have to slide the slider over to right some more and repeat the process until you find your magic number. You may also have a 4GB, and if so you can slide the slider further to the left and your number should be closer to 4100ish.
Good luck
