Wie sagt man das auf Englisch (US)? "amount used" and "unused" in computer hard disc

I want to know the most common and natural expression for "used/unused" in computer hard disc in English. In my dictionary, it says "free space" for unused disc, but then what about for used part? (occupied space?) I want to know parallel expression so that, for example, something like to say "there is 150 GB of used space and 350 GB of unused space (in total 500 GB of hard disc, for example)". Do you say "used/unused", or "free space/ ??? (occupied)", or empty and busy?, or used capacity, or amount of used, or ... what else? Thank you for your help!

I’m not really a technology person, but I know what you mean. I personally just say, “I have 36GB but I already used 12 so there’s only 24GB left.” Like on phones it uses “used/unused” literally, free space is also an option, none of the options you said sounded wrong. I screenshotted an example of what I think you mean.
