Windows Version

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22635.4291]

Other Software

Repro Steps

Inside Ubuntu 24.04 (or any other distribution), run the following:

df -h /

then

df -h /mnt/<letter> [/mnt/<letter2> ...] # (All the accessible *internal* drives)

Expected Behavior

The output ideally should have the Size column with data matching the size of my disk.

Actual Behavior

Output of df -h /

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdc       1007G  2.7G  954G   1% /

Output of df -h /mnt/c /mnt/d (all the available internal drives of my laptop)

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
C:\             477G  126G  351G  27% /mnt/c
D:\              75G  7.7G   68G  11% /mnt/d

The size of the SSD (the only one) on my laptop is, according to WSL2, more than 512G (the actual size) and this piece of information almost fooled me.
