I have a one TB drive and a similar problem. The disk would not show itself in
the "Disk" list.
I could click "format" and it would say OK but not be able to mount.
As I guessed, I think it was a memory problem. Solution:
1. Get a USB-key of at leat 512MB.
2. Insert and format it.
3. Start the Swap File Service and make a swap file on the USB key.
4. Format the 2TB drive. It took 20 minutes for my 1 TB drive. At first it will
look like nothing is happening. After a while it will show progress numbers.
My first attempt failed, but the second worked.
