There is a PD format utility called WUTIL (WinchesterUTILity) this program is written by Tony Camas and is well supported. I used this utility to but an ST-251 (40 MB drive) WUTIL can format most hard drives that can be connected to the rainbow, the utility can also test the low level format and allows many partition options. If you decide on more than 4 partitions you will need a utility to replace the DEC menu as it supports only 4 partitions I don't recall the one I used but POLYPART rings a bell. WUTIL is available on many of the Rainbow FIDO nets, I got mine from theHhitchhikers Guide.
