  Introduction to formatting:
  Simply speaking, formatting is the initial part of the process for preparing a hard disk or other storage medium for its first use. The disk formatting includes setting up an empty file system. A disk formatting may set up multiple file systems by formatting partitions for each file system. Disk formatting is also part of a process involving rebuilding an entire disk from scratch.
  Formatting initially applies only in computer hard disk. Nevertheless, as the development of electronic products, many storage devices have adopted formatting. In a narrow sense, formatting is to zero clear data, delete all storage data and recover storage to original state.
  
  On high-level formatting and low level formatting:
  Formatting comprises high-level formatting and low-level formatting.
  
  Formatting a disk for use by an operating system and its applications and files involves two quite different types of formatting. First, a low-level (closer to the hardware) formatting program will mark the surface of the disk with sector numbers and other information to be used later, in normal operations, by the disk controller. This is intended to be the permanent foundation of the disk, and is often completed at the factory. High-level formatting occurs during operating system installation, or when adding a new disk. This inscribes the file system format. Disk and distributed file system will specify an optional boot block, and various volume and directory information for the operating system. High-level formatting is the process of setting up an empty file system on the disk and installing a boot sector. This alone takes little time, and is sometimes referred to as a "quick format". In addition, the entire disk may optionally be scanned for defects, which takes considerably longer, up to several hours on larger hard disks. In the case of floppy disks, both high- and low-level formatting are customarily done in one pass by the software. In recent years, most floppies have shipped pre-formatted from the factory as DOS FAT12 floppies. It is possible to format them again to other formats, if necessary.
