Zaprowsdower Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I'd like to reinstall windows on my Force GT (1.3.3), not necessarily for the sake of trying to restore performance (my write and read speeds are on par), but just to start fresh. Is doing a secure erase using parted magic necessary for an effective reinstall or would I be fine without one before reinstalling windows? If it isn't, what are the benefits to erasing it first?

Toasted Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I would recommend a secure erase as it is kind of like a restore to factory defaults. The main benefits of a secure erase is it cleans the drive and restores performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
