Hi everyone.
I got a WD external HD from my son. He is using the Cloud.
What I need help with is removing all the current files on this HD so that it is clean to add my files I want to save. Can anyone of you give me simple step by steps to get this done?
Also, do I need to use the disc to add the software for this HD?
I am not to familiar with this external HD storage, but I think it might be a good thing.
Any help will be more than appreciated.
Windows won’t let you format a Operating System (C:) hard drive … but if you have it partitioned into multiple partitions eg. (E:), (F:), (G), (H:) etc etc
When performing a format, choose the correct letter for the partition on the hard drive you wish to format.
When Using External Hard Drives …
Windows assigns it a letter. eg. (E:), (F:), (G), (H:) etc etc Which to you see in Windows file explorer … and it might also have a name eg. (E:) MYBOOK (it could be anything, since anyone can name it whatever they like)
Remember this Letter .
And when performing a format, choose the correct letter for the hard drive you wish to format.
