Ok.. how long should that format take? it's a 9.x gig drive and that format took about 2 seconds...

It should have taken a lot longer than that.

camcontrol format da1 -v -w

That will issue a non-immediate format command. It may be that your drive doesn't like the immediate format command but isn't returning an error.
