    Upside down can. It's okay not to add it. One less is even more acceptable.

    format command.

    After the disk is partitioned with the fdisk command, it must be formatted with the format command, and the format command can be used by:

    format [drive letter] [parameter].

    1: Format only one side.

    4: Format the low-density floppy disk in a high-density drive.

    8: Format the floppy disk with 8 sectors per track.

    S: Format the disk into a bootable computer's system disk. That is, when formatting, the boot area of the disk is loaded and mounted.

    v:label: Writes the volume label directly to the disk when formatting the disk. (The maximum length of the label string is 11 characters).

    b: When formatting, divide 8 sectors per track, and leave enough space for , as well as .

    t:yy: specifies the number of disk tracks.

    n:xx: Specifies the number of tracks and sectors per track.

    Note: t and n are only for disk drives. It cannot be used on hard disks and cannot be used at the same time as parameter f.

    u: Performs unconditional formatting, i.e. redrawing tracks and sectors.

    Note: After you are used, you can no longer use the unformat command to retrieve the original data on the disk.

    f:n: Specify the capacity n of the track to be formatted, and replace the t and n parameters with the lead parameters as much as possible.

    Q: Quick format, only applicable to formatted platters. It only rebuilds the new root directory and file configuration table (FAT) without deleting data or scanning the platter for bad areas.

    C: Re-detect bad sectors.

    u is unconditionally formatted, which will clear all the fan curves of the partition to zero;

    s is to boot the computer after formatting the partition or the disk to write boot information and dos boot information;

    Q Quick formatting, only reset the partition table, the speed is very fast but the data on the hard disk is still there, if it is not rewritten, it can be easily found;

    Among them, q u cannot be used at the same time, and the others are not limited.

    In fact, as long as you enter the DOS, you don't need to add these, just use them.

    format c:

    That's it.

    It means formatting and transferring the boot file, without adding s is just a simple formatting, and you can start the computer from the c disk with the addition of s. Since the C drive is generally used as a system disk or boot partition, an S will be added when formatting the C drive.

    Hope it helps.
