how to 'format / partition'?

I got a server with 2 HDD, the thing is the second one is "raw" I guess and I need to partition it or something, I have never done that in linux before so my DC tech gave me instructions as follows:
Dear Customer,

Firstly, you will need to make the partition in the second drive. Use this command "fdisk /dev/hdd" to partition it.

Once partition, you can make the file system by this command. "mke2fs -j /dev/hdd1"

After you have make the filesystem, you can make the directory that it is going to mount to, "mkdir /home2"

Then you mount. "mount /dev/hdd1 /home2"
the thing is when I do "fdisk /dev/hdd" I see like 50 different partition options, what do I need to do from there?

I am running Linux Fedore w/ CPanel.
