Okay, thanks for the answers. Now, should I get a 2.5"-3.5" adapter to fix a 60B drive or should I just get a new much better one? hehe :P

After using windows for so long I'm just not used to options in the formatting tools that renders your drive useless!

@linde,

It was an old 60MB drive anyway.

60MB?! How old was that drive? Chances are real good it was near its end-of-life.

Here's a little 10GB drive for one cent on Ebay, spring for shipping and you'll be all set. :-)

Yeah, it was a pretty old drive, probably from my borked A600HD... Anyway, I got my self a new 2,5" 2GB drive locally for 50 SEK (~5€), and it works like a charm! Thanks for the help everybody!
