I just acquired a 36GB Quantum Atlas II HD. Hard Disk Speedtools says there's no Mac partitions so I went to FWB PE and tried to low level format but keep getting "device not ready" msgs. Both utilities see the drive on the bus just fine and the id is okay, no conflicts. I tried both with the drive connected to an internal 68 pin card and through a 50-68 pin adapter in an external enclosure. The documentation I found online is not helpful re this problem.

Anyone out there have any thoughts?
