![]() ![]() When trying to format through disk management it says "The format did not complete successfully" A cmd format /FS:FAT32 doesnt work (probably because it's 500GB?). However, I cannot format, mark partition as active, or delete volume. All i want is to format setting it to FAT32 and create one primary partition. I did try plugging it into a linux machine and there was no indication of it even being picked up.Ĭhecking under disk management, it turns out its file system is set to RAW and I need it to be FAT32. After repluggin it, it says i should format it but later comes up with an error "Windows was unable to complete format" and that i should check if its not perhaps "read only" etc. I cannot create or put anything on it as it says. I am able to explore the drive SOMETIMES but theres nothing on it. It's also visible under "My Computer" however it does not display any of the info regarding free space and total size (just "Local Disk F:"). I plug it into my windows 7 laptop, and it appears in computer manager -> disk management. I'd just like to comfirm whether or not its days are over. I have a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex external harddrive (500GB). ![]()
