If you have your owner manual chances are it will be listed as fluid type & specifications.
My guess less than 1/2 of a quart, but only with a syringe with hose will you actually be able to get most out. It seems there is always still some at bottom of reservoir.
Did you find any air bubbles in the reservoir after running pump wheels back & forth?

Did it quieten down at all? It will have a bit of a whine when at full turns left/right is normal.
If it is screaming all the time..might want to try a new pump!
I have also found that on noisy pumps sometimes adding this product will reduce friction & get it a bit quieter...I generally mix Lubegard 50-50 with normal fluid.
LUBEGARD Power Steering Fluid

You could let it run with new fluid for a few hundred miles, then suction it out again.
I used a mix of lubegard and GM Power steering fluid on my 2nd go around and it was much better on my PA noisy pump then.
