Hello

I have purchased a 2.5" external USB2 HDD case. Seperately I've bought a
Hitachi 20g HDD.

The drive has not yet been Fdisk'd or fomatted and therefore the drive has
not yet been allocated a drive letter and not usable. Is it possble to do
'within' Windows XP?

If not what is the most straight forward method to apply fdisk and format it
(via the US port)
ready for use?

I hope I've made myself clear

TIA ... Mick
