To format a hard disk
When you format a hard disk partition, you must know the difference between a hard drive and a hard drive, so I will describe each:
The hard disk is the entire drive - say a 1 TB hard drive
A hard disk partition is a department that appears to Windows as a single drive when you are. You could share your 1Tb into a partition with 150GB of backup and installation files, 500 GB for the operating system,Program files and similar things, 50GB for temporary files and a partition for the remainder (about 300 GB) for documents, movies, audio files, etc. Having a separate partition for temporary files can be good for two obvious reasons:
If you have a program like Photoshop, it creates many temporary files, and the mix can use them with your program files, run your system very slow.
Windows stores its temporary files in one large file, and as your temporary disc can be editedmuch faster when it is placed on a single partition, your system will be completely in order, adding that speed.
Formatting in Windows
After the partitions have been created, you have the option of either the FAT32 or NTFS format. The choice of the NTFS system allows you much better security for your files. In addition, you can also assign disk space much easier with the NTFS system.
The first format of a driveYou should avoid using the Quick format option, because you want to lay tracks accordingly. Given that hard drives for storage magnetism you want to do best, format, and you can always grab a cup of coffee or tea while it complements this formatting
Formatting in Linux
Linux offers a variety of formats - Native Linux, extended and / home for your documents and settings. If you keep the / home partition intact canto actually move between various Linux distributions and still your settings intact.
Formatting is very fast on Linux, and you have to know the joy that the system is inspired by Unix - a very good system to provide file permissions. In addition, you can not find format, without knowing the admin password, errors are less likely.
Formatting MacOS
Formatting is also very easy on MacOS and can be made via the control panel. So if you buy onenew external hard disk, you can easily create and format partitions without them having to start again.
In Conclusion
Once you know the basics of hard disks and partitions is to format very easy drives. It can happen very easy, and some would say the screen, almost too easy, as you will make a mistake might hit when your mouse on the wrong drive on .
