I think you should be able to hook it up via USB and
format it.
You will want it partitioned as a FAT32, if it is not partitioned already.
A program called SwissKnife is often used for this.

Subject: how to format drive?

If I get a new drive for my JBRHD15, do I need to format it somehow a
laptop before installing in the JBR?

If not, how can the JBR even boot up, with no Rockbox on the hard drive yet?
