Yes, now I will insert a caveat that these are running on an XP operating system at 32 bits. I hear that access times are affected by this combination, but I do have full access to the 4 Tb. And these are internal drives connected using SATA.

Conversely I figure if it is already in its’ own case that it is most likely already formatted. I was just curious if there was anything else to make note or be aware of is all.
