I’ll take two please.

It’s nothing a repartition/reformat wouldn’t solve. Do people not automatically do that anyway?

That and turn off every bit of autorun possible. If I pop in a CD or a new hard disk, I want it to sit there quietly until I run something on it. I never want it to start a program automatically.

The first thing I do is to delete any partitions on the disk and lay it out the way I want it. New filesystems follow. This is a non-issue to all but the most incompetent customers.

No, people automatically assume a product will perform just as advertised.

These drives often come with software to transfer from one’s old hard drive to the new one.
