I am currently upgrading my hard drive and so I bought a new one.
I heard that you are supposed to fully format a hard drive when you first install it to double check that everything is working as it should. However, I knew it would take a while to format because it is a large drive but it has taken over 48 hours to keep telling me that it is formatting.
I would like to tell you I have a rough idea of how far along it is but due to Windows 10 I can't actually see this information for myself, otherwise I may not have needed to make this thread.
Any help would be greatly appreciated but I understand that it is a problem that may not be solvable over the internet through forums.
Thank you
