Hi

I have just had a larger disc drive installed, and am going to use my old smaller drive to back up to. I have everything working, but I need to reformat the old HD. Can someone tell me please how I do this. No doubt its easy when you know how.

Many thanks

Grandpa

It is fairly simple. Look at this article that explains the process:

This assumes your secondary hard drive is attached and visible in My Computer.
