Help formatting a drive after uninstalling windows!

[Mercuryaces]

So I wanted to format all of my drives to factory, my issue is I don't know how to do that to my drive with windows installed. How do I go about completely formatting and removing windows from this last drive?

yup, you can use disk part in a windows installer, and then wipe the dirves in there.

 

Are you reusing the drives or selling/giving them away? If you selling thme, make sure to do a full wipe so data can 't be recovered.
