Odd SSD issue, Size remaining

[Lowdown]

I am having a weird issue with my C: drive which is a Patriot Pyro 60GB SSD drive. The system is currently running Windows 8 but originally had Window 7 when purchased October 2011. On the very left window box in the picture it is all my files selected with hidden files shown and selected, then properties to show the files take a little over 27GB. The next window shows the properties and icon info from my computer showing the C: drive is almost completely filled up with only about 3GB free. The pagefile is set to run on another physical drive and hibernation is turned off along with File History (Shadow Copy) and any other thing that take up space on the drive that is sometimes hidden. Looking at CrystalDiskInfo and SSDLife the drive is listed at 100% with TRIM turned on, the drive is running the latest firmware from Patriot which was updated many months ago. Windows 8 was installed on this drive at the end of August 2012 but this issue was not present at the time, I just have noticed this recently but I am not sure what is causing this. Has anyone else come across an issue like this?
