Frank, How long are you waiting for it when it just sits there? It'll probably take a half hour or so to low level format that drive, and you'll get no indication of it being done other than the program will return. My HDParms program shows it as having 1365 cylinders and 9 heads. Let HDToolbox read the information from the drive. You'll only get drive types if you've set up the drive type database that HDToolBox uses (and saves on exit). It's in sys:tools as "drive definitions" Don
