    Just FYI, these days even a format can fail. Some things manage to get into your actual bios, or infect your drive firmware.

    Extremely rare, but still very much possible.

        You’d be surprised, these have already been found in the wild. They aren’t 0-days or anything, so they aren’t exactly secret or worth much. No more than any other cluster of code anyway.
