Unencumbered by any knowledge, I've always used the regular
Format when formatting a drive NTFS.
Takes much longer than "Quick Format", so it must be doing
something more.
I'm guessing something about looking at each sector and maybe
eliminating bad sectors from the volume table of contents.
Am I even close?
Which formatting option do those in the know choose?
