I'm about to replace Windows, so I'm taking the chance to completely erase my HDD. I've been letting junk accumulate for a few years.
I'm not sure how to completely erase a hard drive though. I've been told that formatting it doesn't actually delete stuff, and therefore wouldn't recover all the disk space? I'm not trying to hide anything, so I don't need something for that. I just want a fresh start for the new install of Windows.
What's the best way to erase a hard drive?
