What is the best way to format USB pen drives easily. Is your flash pen drive corrupted? Did a previous virus attack corrupt your USB drive and it now works unreliably? Deleting all your files and formatting the USB flash drive might be the best way to make your pen drive work like new. So what is the correct way to format USB drives.
Note that simply deleting files from the flash drive does not format it. Although this is a beginner’s tutorial, but you would be surprised how many people don’t know how to format USB drives to make them function better, and this article goes out to them.
Format USB Drives
Here is a screenshot of “My Computer” on Windows 7. This is what happens when I insert my corrupted flash drive which has previously hosted virus infected files which were disinfected by Norton Internet Security. Now the USB pen drive works unreliably and has errors in ejecting safely too. Note that the Removable Drive icon still does not display correctly.

Right click the Removable Drive icon and select “Format”

Without changing any settings, I select the Quick Format option, and Press Start.

The alert warns that formatting will erase all data forever, and if you really want to proceed. Note: Always backup and remove data from the USB drive before formatting to your computer. NO data will be retrieved after formatting.

Now the format is complete in seconds. That’s it.

Notice that the Removable Drive icon is now restored and the USB drive works fine now as I transfer files to and fro from my computer.

Note that simply deleting files from the flash drive does not format it.

Want to buy Apple iPad 128GB? Apple today increased the iPad storage from 64GB to 128GB by adding a new model to its iPad lineup. The new 128GB iPad with retina display will be available in both Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi + Cellular models and will provide twice the storage capacity!
Apple iPad 128GB
As the ever improving iPad camera continues to store more HD photos, and HD videos, and as the iPad continues to replace netbooks and traditional computers – people continue to store large amounts of data on the iPad, and while computers still come loaded with 500GB+ hard disk drives, the iPad was still stuck at 64GB with no way to increase the inbuilt storage.
Now the 128GB iPad will allow heavy content users get to choose a higher version. It would be particularly useful to people using huge 3D CAD files from AUTOCAD, using complex video editing tools, project blueprints and storing large music libraries and lots of HD movies.
Its not available for sale yet. The new iPad 128GB will start selling on 5 February 2013 in both black and white colors from all Apple stores, Apple online store and authorized retail stores. The Wifi model will cost $799 and Wi-Fi + Cellular model will cost $929. If you compare the rates with the 64GB models, it means just by paying $100 extra you can get a 128GB model instead of 64GB!
