3.How do i format D2 and create partitions on the same

That will depend on what FS you want to create. Since partition tables are written to the MBR, if you want to remove D2 and place it back in the older comp., then format it seperately by removing D1.

4.My D2 is showing as 32gb even though it is 40 gb. Can this be resolved by formatting it new

Check your HDD's jumper settings. Some HDDs have a setting for older non-40GB mobos. Use appropriate setting for 40 GB.
