Have a hard drive from a laptop I would like to format because the installed Windows is no longer bootable. However, my computer can't handle the hard disk. As long as she depends on it is nothing more. As soon as I remove it again everything goes perfectly. How can I format the harddisk please?
Not a bad idea😅
I just have not thought about that she's just scrap.
Is there a test procedure to ensure this?
Maybe it would be possible to format the disk under Linux.
If that does not work, it will not be recognized there either, only format / hammer will help
If the system is "frozen" while it is connected and directly after deducting continues to run is probably the plate is defective.
the only thing you can try are diagnostic tools from the manufacturer or n low level format.
Yes, there are usually tools from the manufacturer or eg CrystalDiskInfo, which I often use.
but if the computer freezes when the plate is tuned that will probably nothing.
Maybe, as others write, try using Linux or something.
What is to be done for it? What is to be considered? Who delivers "Linux"?
You can download Linux for free in the NET, I would recommend you "Linux mint"!
