Just plugged a returned SATA HDD into my PC, booted up went into computer managment, and this came up.

Iam sure ive never seen this before, normally I just open comp management and format the drive then partition it.

So just wanted to check with your guys on what option is need to select? Bare in mind that the drive was faulty, and wondered if there was any chance in me accessing any files that where previously on there? But iam I think I may have a new one anyways!

Never seen that before either, what size disk is it?

I'd just hit OK and see what happens, worst comes to the worst you can always trash *** disk and start again.

Yer I did as you said, formatted ok. Only thing is I dont think I can partition it. But that doesnt really matter.
