Quick or Full Format for new Intel Series-320
Just received my two new Intel 320-Series and want to put them in one of my Sager notebooks, which already has an x25-m 160 boot drive. I did the v.1.92 f/w update successfully.
I want to use the two Series-320s for user data files only, not O/S boot drive. So do you recommend a “quick” or “full” format? Does it matter which? Does “full” still check sectors on a new empty SSD?
Any special concerns or advice with these series-320 SSDs since they won’t be the boot HDD? I’m a bit rusty on the SSDs since I haven’t kept up with the new SSD particulars since my initial install of my X25-m boot drives a year ago. Thanks for any advice/comments for the 320s!
