I bought a 1tb sata drive on ebay which came from new hp laptops but the
drive is split into 4 partitions a main 931gb 2 x recovery and another EFI
one but I can only delete the main partition.

Everything is greyed out on the other 3 and all you get is help

I am using win7 and this is in disk management any idea how to wipe the
drive clean?
