Formatting a Single Raid Drive to

[amsetikas]

Hello,

I have a 300GB Maxtor SATA150 HDD that was in a Mirrored RAID in an old PC. I want to use it as a backup drive with a USB HDD docking station. It says the data file system is RAW and windows cannot format it. Is this because it was part of RAID? How can I format this drive to work with my USB docking station?

Thanks!!

Andrew

Connect the drive and go to disk management. Right click on it, and format.
