Has anybody tried to do a low-level reformat (and fdisk, I'd assume)
of an Iomega Rev drive to NTFS?

Hello, Emmet
Here is the Iomega site explaining why they Iomega used UDF
instead of NTFS or FAT32 with the removable hard disk REV system:

Yeah, that's what peeked my interest. I was wondering if anyone had
actually tried to do a reformat to NTFS

There is a utility on www.sysinternals .com that lets you format floppies in
NTFS, it might well work for you as well.
