I have no clue why this is happening but I got this switch and modded it around a year ago, and have been installing games to my sd card since then, however i have just realized that for some reason it has 1.3gb of storage. After initializing the system again from maintenance mode it still shows that number, and when i made an emummc it still said 1.3gb. I thought it was supposed to have 32gb, so i chalked it up to something done by the guy on ebay i bought it from

Can anyone help

You may not want to do this but what I would do is backup your saves with checkpoint (you should do this anyway and often) and format your Switch. There won't be anything else lost beside saves then you just restore them with checkpoint. Atmosphere etc... will remain on the sd card, no need to format it so take it out when doing this.

You didn't say but I'm assuming you have a v1 unpatched Switch? It won't change that by formatting. You'd only lose a few settings like your internet settings.

But before you do anything that drastic, check your settings and make sure you didn't install any games or updates to the internal in storage. Some games are large enough that all it would take is one game and it would take all that space, and you could accidentally install an update there as well.
