Do you need a special formatting program to format large (>1024 cylinder)
drives? I have a large drive on order from DDS, but they tell me that
the normal operating system will not format >1024 cylinders, and they
are trying to get a format program that will.

My question: Is this true for 3.0? I have 3.5.1, will it work?
