You can do a quick format. It takes only a few seconds.

You must have heard my mantra by now: Backup, backup, backup. Back up to DVDs/CDs all important stuff on disk.

If you are truly....truly using this disk for backup only, then the only time it should be on is when the backup is happening. Else it should be stored safely elsewhere and not be actively in use....then it's not a backup.

Right on. :thumbsup:

True.

It was a pretty long trek for her to come back with nothing. :sweat:
