G4 PowerPC ATA drive fear!

I have a G4 1.25 Dual Power PC and I've added a 320Gb ATA drive as the system drive. All seems fine except that in Disk Utility the drive appears RED and it says ' This drive has reported a fatal hardware error to Disk Utility" It won't let me format the drive or First aid it etc.

Anyone know how I can do a low level format and maybe try and locate the damage?

I've tried Disk Warrior and Tech Tool4 to no avail.

many thanks
 
Don't double-post. You only need to post your question once, in one section of the forum.

If no one knows the answer the first time you post a question, posting a second time will not make someone magically know the answer.
