After building my first PC the other day, I forgot to format the 2nd partition. So I went to do it now, and under format options it says "Enable Compression" and "Quick Format". Should I check these off? What exactly do they do? Also, on the nest thing it says that it will erase anything on the drive. That is for only the unformatted partition, right? Thanks for any help.
