Default USING PARTITION MAGIC 8.01 TO FORMAT A 200GIG DRIVE SAFE ? WHY DO FAST

Why does partition Magic format a 160-250 gig drives so fast. here at
work the IT Specialists use PM 8.0 to format 40-50 drives using
partition magic 8.0 and darn it was so fast.. I tried formating [back
at home] using windows 98 boot disk for a 160 gig and it took 2-3
hours. Is it REALLY SAFE to use partition magic to format a disk so
fast and reliably store crucial data ??????? Advise
