Does my second SATA drive need formatting?
Some time ago I was installing Win7 when the PC started showing errors (ended up being faulty RAM.) The hard drive I was using got put aside to rule it out as the issue.
Now I'm using that drive for more internal backup. It shows up as having all its memory free, but there were two folders present - WindowsBT and Windows WS. Not much in them except for some .dat files that wouldn't delete without permission.
Would these have been left behind as a result of a partial Win7 install? Should I format the drive just to make sure everything is fine? Error checking found no errors.
