It depends alot on what you want to format them WITH.


If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

Right. Are you going to reinstall an OS on them, or just use the drives for data storage?

I want to format them to be able to use them as data hard drives or Win 95/98 boot disks.

I would like to be able to do either.

A DOS 6.22 boot disk should do it.
