Keep in mind that hard disks for the Plus should be formatted with a 3:1 interleave. Newer Macs usually cannot access these, so you may have to use the Plus itself to format it.
I'm aware of this but I can't boot the Plus with a drive attached to do it.
Will it boot with the drive attached but powered off? Once you have the Plus booted up, then you can switch on the power to the external drive and launch appropriate formatting software.
