You should have < 15 GB of total space.

Technically, that's "GiB" although I hate that terminology. Anyway, hard drive, sd card, SSD, thumb drive, etc. manufacturers all label their units in metric units (1000) not the way computers do (1024.)

Most people think the difference is small (2%), but it adds up because it's in powers.

16.00 (retail size)
* 1000 * 1000 * 1000 / 1024 / 1024 / 1024
= 14.90 gigabytes of space

This is also why if you buy a 300 GB SSD, you'll find it only has 279 GB of space on it.
