Problem for Buffalo Technology 1TB DriveStation TurboUSB (2x500)...
Time for physical format ???
By danteslady on Mar 14, 2009
Hallo,
today i startet a physical format. My buffalo drive station HD-HC500U2 500 GB war formattet with FAT32. I need NTFS. Since starttime there left 700 minutes. Is that normal?
what shall i do?
Thank you for your answer.
Sincerly Kurt What is it with these Drivestations they just don't want to be formatted. I tried to format during installation and was told that everything was successful but in the drive management utility it still showed up as FAT32. I tried right clicking on the drive and selecting format but there was an error during the proccess so that failed. I tried to format using Run CONVERT F:/FS:NTFS making sure that F is the letter for my drive, I thought I was getting somewhere but the process seems to hang a the point where it says determining disk space required for system conversion. It hadn't completed last night so I left it to run all night only to find it was still at the same point when I woke up this morning. I have a Drivestation HD-CE1.0TU2 with XP and this drive needs to be formatted. ARRRRGH!

Did you fit the drive into the Buffalo drive case? If so, take it out and put it in your computer tower/case and format it from there. Then put it back into your Buffalo case.
Go to the Buffalo sight and see if your Drivestation needs a firmware update - there may have been bugs in the one you purchased.
