[QUOTE="pettycash, post: 1899236, member: 347736"] I am about to format my old MBP for trade-in and would like to know what the best approach is. People say it is more thorough to erase the volume but it just takes minutes to complete. If I erase the HD, it will take over four hours even if I format it just once. So which option should I pick please? [/QUOTE]
