Remove CDFS partition

MPSAN · Jan 12, 2009

How about booting a linux live CD and using the Linux fdisk?

I don't see why it shouldn't work connected directly to the PC. Does the HD have a manufacturer label on it? I would assume it would be a Seagate or Hitachi drive.

When its connected directly to my PC its like it doesnt power on. I don't hear it spin up or anything. It's an Hitachi drive.

Hitachi feature tool allows the user control over some of the parameters of today’s high performance ATA hard disk drives. It's worth taking a look. Good luck.

Try this commmand prompt:

>format g:/fsfat32

(which ever "g" or drive letter of your usb...make sure that you know a correct drive to format)

Does anyone know how to remove a CDFS partition on a hard drive?
I was given a Clickfree hard drive that I won't use and would love to format it.
Clickfree is the name of the product. Bascially you plug in the drive it boots up and starts to backup all important data. It has 2 partitions; a FAT32 and a CDFS. I can format the FAT32 partition, but the CDFS partition copies the files to the FAT32 partition automatically everytime I plug it in.
I've tried Partition Magic, Windows disk managment, U3 removal tool and FDISK but they don't work. Here is the Clickfree site for info. http://www.goclickfree.com/
Any ideas?

There's a LOW LEVEL FORMAT TOOL @ http://hddguru.com/
Did wonders for me... hope it helps
