Probably a dumb question

It's probably very obvious once you know how to, but how do you get the hard drive capacity within System 7? I tried Get Info but it just seemed to tell me that 71.8MB of the hard drive had been used.

Open the volume in the finder and look at the top information bar.

X items      Y MB in disk    Z MB available
Add Y and Z together.

To look at the disk partitions use Drive Setup or HD SC Setup.

Thanks. It's strange how there isn't a total hard drive capacity feature built-in.
