OK, maybe I'm misunderstanding something. I thought a low level format would
make the drive an HFS+ and isn't an HFS+ what I should be using with OS 9?

Does anyone know approximately how long it takes to format a low level drive
that is 4.5G?

Can anyone recommend what drive I should get if I want an HFS+? I'm about to
give up on this one, and can't afford to be down for too long.
