How to Successfully Format Hard Drive from USB?

Geeks - To successfully format a hard drive from a USB drive, you will need to:

Connect the hard drive to your computer using a USB cable.

Open the "Disk Management" utility on your computer. This can typically be found in the Control Panel or by searching for it in the Start menu.

Once the Disk Management utility is open, you should see a list of all the drives connected to your computer. Locate the hard drive that you want to format and right-click on it.

From the menu that appears, select the "Format" option. This will open the "Format Volume" window.

In the "Format Volume" window, you will need to specify the following information:

The file system for the drive (e.g., NTFS, FAT32, etc.)

The volume label (this is the name that will be displayed for the drive in Windows Explorer)

The allocation unit size (this determines the size of the blocks used to store data on the drive)

Whether you want to enable quick formatting

Once you have entered all the required information, click the "OK" button to begin the formatting process.

The formatting process may take several minutes to complete, depending on the size of the hard drive and the speed of your computer. When it is finished, the hard drive will be ready to use.
