Eyo!

So i got this old WD blue caviar 320gb SATA HDD and I'd like to format it and use it to store data (much like a Flash Drive or a CD) and not use it for an OS for a computer (since the computer is broken and old and i managed to salvage this and a couple of ram sticks)
 
Solution
Get yourself an external USB enclosure which will fit your disk, connect it via USB, format the drive from windows, and you can then use it for backup.
