Video 1: Demonstrates how to format hard drives in Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems. This is a crucial step for new drives or for re-purposing existing drives.
Per a Windows: Access Disk Management (Right-click 'This PC' -> 'Manage' -> 'Disk Management'). Locate the unallocated disk, right-click to initialize, then create a New Simple Volume and format it (NTFS recommended).
Per a macOS: Open Disk Utility (Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility). Select the drive, click 'Erase', choose a format (APFS or Mac OS Extended (Journaled) recommended), and confirm.
Per a Linux: Use a disk utility like GParted or the 'Disks' application. Select the drive, format it to your desired file system (e.g., Ext4, NTFS for Windows compatibility), and mount it.
