Have you checked the actual specs of the HDLoader.. Like format time. PS2 is no PC.. It might've actually taken longer than 50 minutes or it may have been a legit error. Either way if you interrupted the format with a hard power off it could mess with things like boot records and other junk I would think.. The PC format sounds like a good idea. You might need some kind of utility to resurrect that drive.. But the PS2 definately isn't equipped with the tools to do the job.. Tyler's suggestion is the only way to go.. and before you pop that thing back in (assuming you get it going) do some homework and check for worst case scenarios.. loading times.. format times.. etc.
