bhaishab disk ko format karne ki jarorat padti hai jab operating system install karna hota hai.... agar aapka comp. sahi chal raha hai to disk ko format karne ki koi jarorat nahi hai.... formating means just wash out the whole disk (partition). suppose u have 3 partitions C, D and E if u format D drive... every thing will b washed out... and the benefit is that after formating only it can b recognized by windows as a drive/partition.. there r few formating types are available like FAT, FAT32, NTFS.... now NTFS is most common one n considered best among all others.
usually windows C drive mein install hoti hai (i already assumed u r using windows) isiliye aachi practice yahi hai ki C mein koi bhi data store na kiya jaye.. kyonki agar windows mein koi problem aati hai toh C ko format kar diya jata hai aur windows dubara install kar di jati hai. so aapki C drive ka sab kuch delete ho jyega lakin D aur E drive as it is rahengi.

Ram Ram Jakhar Ji,
Waise toh mujhe kuch khaas nahi pata iss baare mein par jitna pata hai woh share karta hoon.
Actually, hard disk ek data store karne ka media hai. Jo bhi deta hum banate hai ya idhar udhar se copy karte hai woh sab hard disk mein save karte hai. operating system(jaise windows, Unix etc), ye sab bhi hum hard disk par hi daalte hai. Toh kayi baar kya hota hai ki data thiek se save nahi hota, kuch error aa jata hai ya kuch files corrupt ho jaati hai toh doosare softwares ki performance/functionality kharab ho jaati hai. Isliye hamein uss saare data ko erase/hatana padta hai aur dobara se daalna hota hai. Issi ke liye mainly hum formatting karte hai.
Formatting 2 type ki hoti hai
* Complete formatting :- Iss case mein data hard disk se completely udda diya jaata hai. yaha par hum chip level par jaakar data erase karte hai. Matlab ki ye saara data potential difference(ya current keh lo) ki form mein save hota hai. Toh iss case mein hamien kuch file wagarah ka jhanjhat hota hai woh fir se karna padta hai ... ye maan lo ki puraane ghar ko toh kar naya ghar bana diya ussi jagah par.

* Quick formatting :- Yaha par hum keval upari taur se data erase karte hai. low level ki cheejon ko nahi chedte. Jab data jyada ho jaaye aur hamare kaam ka nahi hai toh delete maarne ke type quick format kar do. Iss ko aap aise keh sakte hai ki aapke paas ghar hai par aap saamaan badalna chahte hai ghar ka ... isliye building woh hi rakho aur saara saman fenk do aur safedi wagarah karwa ke naya saaman daal do.

Waise agar aapko keval data delete hi karna hai to quick formatting kijiye. Complete jab aap nayi hard disk laaye ya saara OS hi change karna chaho ya fir OS ki files mein kuch problem ho jaaye tabhi use karo.

Pata nahi mein kitna samjha paya hoon. Waise complete formatting toh mujhe bhi samajhni hai low level par kya kya hota hai. Agar koi electronics ka banda bata de toh kripa hogi.:)
