    lol, well typically you only need to format the OS drive when reinstalling windows. If you install steam in the same location as before, it will find the games and you wont have to download them again.

    1. He wanted a "Clean Machine"
    2. He Really did a "Clean Install" -- No crappy "upgrades" here

    3. Early "Spring Cleaning".

    but if the other drivers are mainly storage drives, theres no point in formatting them.
