I feel really stupid for asking for help on this...
How do I use an older HDD for data? It's from a dell computer, and I managed to delete most of the folders on it. However, it still has over 100 GB used up and still tells me I don't have the administrator's permission to access it sometimes....if I format it, will I be able to clear everything on it? And if so, how exactly do I format it? Do I just right click and select "format" ? I have done something like that before with an external drive, and it completely messed it up to a point where I had to throw it out -- so I'm afraid to do the same thing with this HDD .
Thanks so much for the help!!
