SBS 2003 reformat hard drives for clean reinstall
We have a poweredge 1800 server that we have retired. We would like to sell this unit but I dont know how to reformat the hard drives to wipe all our information out and have a fresh clean install. I have tried putting in the operating disc upon boot but it tells me that the OS is already there. It doesnt give me the option to format the drive like a desktop does OR am I just doing something totally wrongANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECAIATED AS I WANT TO GET THIS UNIT OUT OF MY OFFICE.... THANKS
