I erased my hard drive due to slow system issues and decided to start fresh. Now my ST3000DM001 4TB upgraded hard drive is having issues. It's not not showing in finder. After restarting the computer, it gives me this.

The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer. Then choices of initialize / ignore / eject

I choose initialize: The drive does show under disk utility so I try to format but it won't let me. It says under info unable to write to last block of device. Partition is greyed out and I don't know to much about that.

Below are screenshots of everything I am seeing including terminal information. I am using an Mac (27-inch, Late 2013) El Capitan. Please help! I would greatly appreciate it as having that 4 TB was awesome.
