    To put a new ext3 file system on it put the key in your computer and 
learn which USB port has it. Now lets just do this in a terminal:

$ sudo mkfs.ext3 USB-port and put the real port in. You can see the 
proper port by looking at /media, or the error message.

    If the format is a success your computer will load it as a new file 
system as all mine are.
