You just can't hang a drive on a 3B2 and think that it will work.  For
one thing you will need the DEVTOOLS Utility to format the drive and to
put a sanity track on it.  To do this you will also need all of the
physical information about this disk to be able to tell DEVTOOLS what it
needs to format.
