Formatting the Drive in
Windows 2000/XP
1. Double-click on My Computer/Explorer. In the My
Computer/Explorer window, you should see the drive letter
for the External Hard Drive. If you are not sure which drive
letter represents the Drive, turn it off and see which one of
the icons disappears. Then turn on the Drive and wait for
the drive letter to reappear.
4. Right-click on the drive letter and select Format... in the
pop-up menu. The Format dialog box will appear.
5. Under Capacity, verify the Drive capacity. It should be
close to the stated capacity of your Drive in gigabytes.
6. In the File System pop-up menu, select NTFS. Do not
select FAT 32 as you cannot format the Drive using the
FAT 32 file system on Windows 2000 or XP . The default
formatting option is Full format. A Full format will take
about 30-90 minutes. A Quick format will take just a few
minutes, but will do less verifying of the Drive than a Full
format. Click Start. Once the format process is complete,
your External Hard Drive is ready to use.
