# Odstranitev vsega z odstranljivega diska

If you have a removable disk, like a USB memory stick or an external hard disk, you may sometimes wish to completely remove all of its files and folders. You can do this by formatting the disk — this deletes all of the files on the disk and leaves it empty.

# Formatiranje odstranljivega diska

Open Disks from the Activities overview.

Select the disk you want to wipe from the list of storage devices on the left.

Prepričajte se, da ste izbrali pravi disk! V primeru da izberete napačen disk, bodo vse datoteke na drugem disku izbrisane!

In the toolbar underneath the Volumes section, click the menu button. Then click Format Partition….

In the window that pops up, choose a file system Type for the disk.

If you use the disk on Windows and Mac OS computers in addition to Linux computers, choose FAT. If you only use it on Windows, NTFS may be a better option. A brief description of the file system type will be presented as a label.

Give the disk a name and click Next to continue and show a confirmation window. Check the details carefully, and click Format to wipe the disk.

Once the formatting has finished, click the eject icon to safely remove the disk. It should now be blank and ready to use again.

# Formatiranje diska vaših datotek ne izbriše varno

Formatiranje diska ni popolnoma varen način izbrisa podatkov. Formatiran disk bo videti kot da na njem ni datotek, vendar je mogoče s posebnimi obnovitvenimi programi datoteke obnoviti. V primeru da želite datoteke varno izbrisati, uporabite pripomoček kot je shred.
