The Format Utility is a simple utility that allows a user to format the DriveStation for use in a Windows
System. Reformatting the drive erases all of the information on the drive. Only reformat the drive if
absolutely necessary.

Run the Format Utility by running the EasySetup Wizard
from the DriveNavigator CD (This is done by inserting the
DriveNavigator CD into a Windows System).
Click on the ‘Disk Formatter’ button to launch the utility. If the
‘Disk Formatter’ button is not available from the main setup
page, then it will be located under the ‘DriveStation Utilities’
section.
NOTE: The Disk Format Utility is run directly off of the CDROM. It is not installed to your computer.
