    Now the old c drive is the slave and has a copy of whats on my barracuda

    I want to reformat the old drive and so on.

                              Asuming the D drive has the right file system I don't see why not.

                              If you want to be on the safe site re-partition it and then format it, but just formatting should work

                                      Make sure to make the drive NTFS.
                                      With video it doesnt take much to have a 4+GB Raw Avi file and FAT32 isnt juicy enough to support 4+gb files

                                                  Check your other thread; I described how to debug either drive. Hit me up if you need help.

                                                      Format it FAT32. It's just a data drive now.

                                                      You can read/wr<i></i>ite a FAT32 formatted drive from dos or a Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s95/98/ME
                                                      boot disk but you can't read/wr<i></i>ite NTFS without Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s XP/2000 Pro boot
                                                      floppies.

                                                      As a rule you want Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s XP and Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s 2000 formatted NTFS so you
                                                      can use the security functions only an NTFS format can provide running
                                                      with Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s XP or Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s 2000 Pro.
                                                      Slaved drives don't need NTFS and an NTFS formatted operating system
                                                      can read/wr<i></i>ite both NTFS and FAT32 where as a FAT32 formatted operating
                                                      system can only read FAT32 and not NTFS.

                                                      Next time you ask for computer help you should say what operating system you
                                                      have. Also say weather you have HOME or PRO if running Win<i></i>dow<i></i>s XP.
                                                      Techs aren't clairvoyants ya know ;)

                                                      Do i do a traditional format d on this old drive ?
