What are the disadvantages of Formatting a Hard Disk.In a FlashorEEPROMa fixed number of Erase opns are possible and hence formatting a flash is costlier.Does the same logic apply for Hard Disk too.?
Basically formatting means it deletes all the information on the disk. Now let me point out the difference between deletion and formatting. In the case of deletion only File Allocation Table [FAT] is getting changed. That is why deletion takes place fast and we are able to undelete from Recyclebin. When we edit documents, information on hard disk is changed. The only difference between this and formatting is that during formatting that particular partition is completely rewritten. Two more points to answer your question 1. Shift + Del is equivalent to deleting bytes on the hard disk ( the operation performed during formating) 2. Will your hard disk damage if you constantly Shift + deleted your files on the system? Hence, without fear keep formatting your HDD as many time you need, to do it to get rid of those virus files developed by some foolish software engineers.
