![]() I've read articles that go either way with this issue. I have recovered my PC 3 times using this method where I'm running the PC as normal after installation of the HDD. I've been using "Gparted" to do a simple Format prior to routine cloning during the past couple of years and haven't encountered any issues after formatting an infected HDD and reusing it as a cloned spare verifiable working HDD. If there is a known malware / virus present on one's HDD, will a standard Format action render all threats inactive or does the affected HDD need to be completely wiped via a data destruction tool such a "dban" or other HDD cleaning tools? I was curious about this question and have been reading some articles but there seems to be 2 schools of thought about it.
