Drobo S -- Volume management

Drobo - End of Sale Drobo S
1

I am using Drobo S on Windows 7; have 4 volumes of 2 TB each. Due to major power fluctuations, files/folders on one of the volumes are corrupted. Other three volume seem to be okay. The disk is not physically damaged. I just want to delete these corrupted folders, or reformat that volume. Drobo S does not provide volume management utility to selectively reformat just one volume. Can I reformat this one volume using windows disk management utility? Will the other three volumes remain intact? Would greatly appreciate any insights.

Thanks for your help in advance
