I just got a new Seagate FreeAgent Extreme 1.5TTb External Hdd to hook up to my ps3. My problem is that when i use Swissknife v3 to delete the original 1.37Tb partition that is NTSF, the program will then only recognize about 400Mb and wont format the entire 1.37Tb as FAT32. I've done this process twice with 2 other 500Gb Seagate Ext. Drives and it has worked fine. Any Ideas as to what could be the problem, other ways to format the drive as FAT32, etc.

Also,Once the original partition is deleted the only way i've found to recover the original drive size is to use the windows disk management tool to format back to NTSF.
