Format Partitions

Advantage:

Formatting partitions will help you install the Windows Operating System, or re-arrange the hard disk partition as well as deleting all the data on the hard drive or partition.

Attention: Partition formatting operation destroys all the data on the partition, including files and folders! Take special care when performing this operation.

To format partition, please follow the steps as bellow: (Suppose you want to format drive D:)

1. Launch EASEUS Partition Master.

2. Select drive D:.

3. Click "Partitions" > "Format", you also can choose "Format" by right clicking the mouse.

4. Type the label you want in the Partition Label box.

5. Select the file system type to be created from the "Partition Type" drop-down list. (FAT/FAT32, NTFS). If the partition is larger than 4GB, you can only choose FAT32 or NTFS; if the partition is smaller than 4GB, we can choose FAT, FAT32 or NTFS.

6. Choose the Cluster Size (512 bytes, 1, 2, 4...64KB) from drop-down list.

Note:

Smaller cluster size makes less wasting of disk space.

The smaller cluster size is, the bigger file allocation table (FAT) will be. The bigger the FAT is, the slower the operation system works with the disk.

7. Click "OK" to apply the format operation.

8. Click "Apply" to apply all pending operations.
