Full hdd capacity not recognised 27 weeks 17 hours ago

I've added a new 3TB hdd to my Ubuntu Server 12.04 system for media (already has another drive for the OS), but it's only showing 2.2TB capacity

df -H

gives

/dev/sdb1 2.2T 208M 2.2T 1% /media/hd1

and

fdisk -l

gives

Disk /dev/sdb: 3000.6 GB, 3000592982016 bytes 90 heads, 3 sectors/track, 21705678 cylinders, total 5860533168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512
