I have several ide HDD's (WD 400 Caviar Enhanced IDE) that I cannot format. I have tried everything that I know even Master Boot Pro. They read in the disk manager with a drive letter assigned, marked active; healthy. Properties say they are working properly. I have tried the jumpers in all the proper positions, they spin up ok, no noises, not that I need them, perfect for moving files from machine to machine. any suggestions? I am a member of this sight and used it for many reasons but I have never asked you for help before. I should say I'm using windows7 x64 and windows 8 developer preview.
Many thanks in advance.
