google it, there is a program that you can download, so that you can format the hard drive and use it in a laptop or pc.
Hard disk low level format, not sure what exactly its called thats what the program says on my desktop..I used a 120gb xbox 360 hard drive for my wii and that is what i used to format the drive so nothing was left on it from the xbox 360
if i can find the link i will post back
