How did you check that? Drives have a way of reserving space at the end, that
the installer wouldn't see. Unless you checked for this reserved space
explicitly, it wouldn't be noticeable.
For PATA drives you can use the program at:

I don't know if the same feature is available for SATA or SCSI drives,
but if it is you will need a different tool to check them.
