Thinking about reloading...

[noodlenugget]

I am thinking about wiping my HD and completely reloading everything. My question concerns WoW. I bought the download versions of WoW and TBC. If I reload my comp, will I have to re-download everything? Does Blizzard allow for this sort of thing?

Yes and no. A reformat wipes everything, all data goes down the toilet unless backed up. Therefore, if you backup the WoW folders to another storage medium, you won't have to worry about reformatting.
