Windows 7 Local Disc Formaing - DRIFT_HUNTER - 14.06.2015
Just a quick question. When you right click on local disk and click format, uncheck quick format. Does it mean windows will zero fill that local disc or is it something else?
Im asking these as im having big problems with my main HDD and i would like to zero fill it. Problem is i cant just download some data wiping software, create bootable flash drive and erase full HDD as i have files on local disc D and i dont have space to backup all of them.

Full Format runs an additional stpe that checks the hard drive for any bad sectors, This is why it takes abnormal time like more than quick format.
In quick format the files do exist, Normally you'd assume that the files are gone but you can get'em back.

- Just a quick answer to the question.
Well, Why don't you buy cloud drive?
Ofcourse buying flash, Burning a disc pff a long one, Where as you know the files are huge maybe that'd help, Or else sorry.
