      Google is your friend, look it up. Another suggestion is to read the owner’s manual.

      That really depends. Usually it’s done by the OS installer. My Humax 5300 cable-TV recorder it did it automatically when I connected the disk. And if you have to do it yourself, the “how” in Windows and Linux are different.

      By the way, you don’t format a disk. You format a partition.
