In Windows, deletion of a virtual disk, followed by creation of a virtual disk without initialization may result in a blue screen when attempting to format.
Workaround - Fast initialization of the drive (the default option when creating a disk) before formatting will prevent this issue. As mentioned in the PERC5 Users Guide, please initialize all disks before usage, unless attempting data recovery.
