How to reformat a DVR drive for use on a computer?

I need to use a hard drive on lg tv as dvr and on computer?

I have a LG tv that has a DVR function via USB. When i plug the HDD into the tv it formats it to only be used for the tv but its a 2TB drive and i would like to partition it or something to be used on the computer aswell (maybe 500gb for tv use and 1.5TB for computer use) but i tried doing the format via the tv and then plugging into the computer and partitioning the drive using 'Disk Management' via 'Computer management' in Windows 7 but the options to make changes to the partition arent available. If you know of any software that will help me or a way to fix this with Win7 that would be great. Thanks.
