NTFS Quick Format?
« on: March 03, 2011, 07:53:37 PM »
I need to format this 2TB Samsung drive.
Using Windows XP, I have selected NTFS with 64K blocks.

It has a box for "Quick Format" that I can check.  Should I or not?

It has been 2 years since I formatted an NTFS drive.  I have forgotten what to do. :(

Your reasoning sounds reasonable. :)
But then why doesn't Quick Format default to "Yes" on Windows XP?

This really confuses me.
