- I was told that it was always bad to do low-level format on hard disk.
- However, Norton Utility's Calibrate does such a thing. My question is: is
- Calibrate good for hard disk or not (assuming NU suggests me to have some
- optimization work done on hard disk...)? Or more simply, is low-level
- format good or not to hard disk? Thanks in advance.
