I found with the usb drive I have which was preformatted I had to use 
windows to delete all the partition information before using SCSIForm 
to format in adfs. (Mine is a 60 Gb drive ).

The other option is to temporary fit it into your Iyonix, format then 
refit into the enclosure, you will still have to delete all previous 
formating first.
