When setting up partitions using the windows disk manager which side is the outer edge of the platters left or right? I am setting up a swap partition on a seperate drive and am not sure which side of the picture is inside and which is outside of the drive. If I had to guess it would be the right side is closer to the edge, but with Windows tools one never knows for sure...

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.

well it makes sense unless your used to Arabic, Hebrew, Farsi ect
where text is read right to left
youd "write" from left to right if it was a peice of paper
and disks are written form the highest performance area to the lowest
(out to in) thus it correlates, but it does make me wonder about Arabic Versions of Disk Management
must be some special instructions as it would be counter intuitive
of course without that important peice of info regarding the outer to inner writing of a HDD...
