IDE drive > Firewire: XP does not find it

Greetings

I put a new unformatted 2.5" IDE Dive in an external
firewire housing unit. The unit does not plug/play. I
reboot to a command prompt to execute "diskpart" to do a
rescan and it does not show up on the device list.

Additionally, it hangs a normal reboot or shutdown when it
is attached.

How do I get XP to recognize the new drive? How do I then
partition and format it?

TIA,
Steve
