is it good when i format my harddisk (will it live longer??)

It won't 'live' any longer by formatting your drive. The question is why do
you feel you need to keep formatting your drive? I can understand you doing
this if, like me, you regularly beta test software and need to remove every
scrap of the software you have been testing, but generally, as the americans
say, 'if it ain't broken then don't fix it.'
If everything is working ok on your pc then resist the urge to keep
reformatting.

Hope this helps

you should only format if you have a lot of problems, it
takes a long time to reinstall windows and all the
software.
