I have 2x 2TB HDDs in a NAS. They were configured as a Raid. I copied everything and proceeded to attempt to reconfigure as separate volumes. I got to a point of 2 drives but one was still thinking it was in raid and therefore complained that it was failed, I think. There was no problem with them prior to this.
I removed them to try to reformat on my computer. So far I have tried everything I have to delete all the partitions and recreate a simple partition, but according to Diskpart, Partition Wizard, Linux fdisk and Spinrite there is still a a sector at the beginning that is "in use" and I can't get rid of it.
I assume because of that I can't successfully create a single partition on the drives and get it formatted NTFS.
Any suggestions about what to do now would be GREATLY appreciated.
