OK, if you format a partition then all you format is that partition not the whole drive, it deletes the data only on the partition you selected not any others. To format a whole drive that has more than one partition then you have to delete the partitions first which defeats your object of mixed file formats on separate partitions. You can convert a FAT32 partition to an NTFS one but not the other way around, if it is already NTFS then you have to select format to FAT32.
No it won't erase the other partitions as long as you do it right. Before you do any thing you should run disc defamation on you hard drive.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
