[QUOTE="Kevriano, post: 855183, member: 18605"] You should get 2 HD icons show, but they will be for the same HD. One will be a manufacturers name and some detail of the HD, and the other will be under what ever you named it. It does seem that there is something left there though. Don't use erase as such but just format the drive as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). As was mentioned, Wipedrive may have left something behind. You could also try an fsck check on the drive I guess, couldn't hurt and zap pram and reset nvram. Ask or search if you need to know how. [/QUOTE]
