Hey, guys. My maxtor 40gb 7200rpm HDD has some corrupt sectors on it. I am going to try reformatting it, but I forget *exactly* what I have to do. I know that when I first built my computer I read a formatting tutorial on some website. I'd appreciate it if someone could provide me with a link or some information on how to format my hard drive. I know it's not that difficult... I just forget. Thanks!

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Formatting guide for hard drives?
