FORMAT Definition We define FORMAT |
FORMAT - After partitioning your hard drive, it must be formatted so that it can be used by the operating system. Formatting basically makes your hard disk ready for initial use. The same procedure must be done to removable media such as floppy disks. Some types of formatting wipe out the whole disk, while others just set up the framework for data to be written using a type of quick format. Another type of formatting is a SCSI low-level format. This type of format makes a drive ready to be used by a SCSI controller. When you format a drive you typically lose all information on that drive. |
