745, HD format problem Posted by Rookie, Fri Dec-14-01 08:50 AM
i trying to format a 1.6gb hd and as the format progresses i get a message stating "trying to recover allocation unit". as the % of completion goes so does the size of the allocation unit. it has taken about an hour plus to complete 50%. while formating it indicates that the drive being formatted is only 1.2gb. should i let this go to completion or is this hd a paper weight? thanks,
