mBed LPC1768 - Only 2.1MB available?

My mBed only shows 2.1 mB available on the flash memory. I have tried reformatting on both Windows and Mac to no avail. I have also used Terminal to delete all hidden folders with no luck.

I have been using the LocalFileSystem and ConfigFile libraries. I have had some issues with empty files and the mBed randomly deleting the contents of files so I think my Flash chip may have been corrupted by one of my programs. I have two mBed devices and both have this issue.

Why do you think the size as issue?

16 megabits is 2 megabytes of storage

Sorry, for some reason I thought the mBed had a 2GB memory module on board. I remembered seeing 2GB showing up in the drive list but my eyes must have been playing tricks on me! I will use an external SD card.
