"Quick Format" Versus "Full Format"
A quick format overwrites only the file system information, leaving the actual
file data intact. In contrast, performing a full format on a CFexpress memory
card deletes all data. We recommend fully-formatting CFexpress memory
cards prior to transfer of ownership or disposal.
