You could attach the drive in a PC and use a DOS or linux boot disk. Then
use fdisk to delete the partitions. You should also be able use the MMC disk
management snap-in in Windows and delete all of the current partitions off
the disk. You could do this just by putting the drive in an external USB
case.

Hope this helps.
