How can I add a hard disk to display the correct capacity? Why do I always display the wrong capacity?

Is your root filesystem maybe 30GB? Then sdc is probably not mounted correctly and you forgot to set the "is_mountpoint" flag for your directory storage, so PVE will use that diectory storage even if the disk isn't mounted which will result in the case that you will store stuff on the root filesystem an not on the sdc disk.
 
您的根文件系统可能是 30GB 吗?然后 sdc 可能没有正确安装,并且您忘记为目录存储设置“is_mountpoint”标志,因此即使磁盘未安装,PVE 也会使用该目录存储,这将导致您将内容存储在根文件系统不在 sdc 磁盘上。
My hard disk capacity is 500g. How can I set the "is_mountpoint" flag for Excuse me? Can't I hang the hard disk directly in the system storage? Do I need to enter other codes?

Yes, but I mean the size of your root filesystem, so the size of your "local" storage. If your "local" storage is only about 30GB that would mean your sdc1 isn't mounted correctly.

Should be pvesm set HDD1 --is_mountpoint yes.
