Looks like Golden is away. So taking over.
Yep, you can cancel. No harm.
If your Hitachi drive shows as Bad Disk in Partition Wizard, the prognosis is not good - from my observation in many cases.
Yet, no harm trying to format the drive.
In Partition Wizard, select the right drive/partition, and then Delete partition followed by Format partition. When you have set up partition details, click on Apply. Let us see what happens.
I dont have options like that.
You might try download the Hitachi HD Fitness Test Utility Disk to run tests on the HD.
