    Hello Sukkulento,

    Congrats with your first post here on MorphZone :-)
    I tries it once, but to my knowledge it's not possible with the Peg to lowlevel format.
    Do you have an Amiga? Perhaps you can try it with that?

    Bye,

    May I ask why you need to low level format it?

    No "new" hard disks should be low level formatted afaik...

    ("new" as in "manufactured within 10 years", I guess)
