    I used one of my partition management softwares to format my HDD for this router. Will the trial version of Acronis disk director do the necessary? (If it is fully functioning but with limited duration then yes, because it supports Ext2 and Ext3).

    However, will the Ext2 driver add Ext2 to the Windows formatting options?
