Depends on the hard drive. If its just the drive itself without an external base or something that lets you plug it into a USB/eSata/Thunderbolt connection, then you need to pop open your computer and plug it in that way like the drive your already using. You typically format a drive when you plug it in for the first time, are cleaning up an old drive that you just pulled all the files from, or are formating a thumb drive for work, or using it on a different type of computer.
Of course not. That's where Windows is stored and all your essential files are located, that includes the function you are using to format it. You are basically asking your computer to commit suicide by formatting the C: drive.
your the man thanks for the help
Instructions seem easy to understand but, how and where do you plug in the old hard drive that needs formatted?
