Won't finish formatting
« on: October 07, 2010, 05:59:02 PM »

I just installed a new drive (2TB Seagate SATA) and have tried to format it 3 times. It goes 94% of the way then stops. Any suggestions??

Upgrade your firmware and do a factory reset

This is a known issue with earlier firmware versions.
