3. Formatting Hard Drive
In order to use a hard drive, or a portion of a hard drive, in Windows you need to first partition it and then format it. This process will then assign a drive
letter to the partition allowing you to access it in order to use it to store and retrieve data.
All hard disk management is done in the Disk Management Administrative Tool. Follow these steps to open this tool:
1. Click on the Start button and select the Control Panel option.
2. If in Classic control panel mode, double-click on the Administrative Tools icon and then double-click on Computer Management icon. If
your control panel is in the Category view, click on Performance and Maintenance, then click on Administrative Tools, and finally
double-click on the Computer Management icon.
