On macOS, you can delete existing partitions by using Disk Utility. Select the drive, go to the "Erase" tab, and choose a format that combines the partitions into one. This will remove both partitions at once, letting you keep the data while merging them. The greyed-out option is for individual partitions, so using the combined format avoids losing anything.

Navigate to the partition and ensure it uses a single partition only.

Open View, locate the partitions like Show all Partitions, then remove them. It seems Apple intentionally concealed the partitions by default.

I managed to complete the task using terminal. By removing the partitions that way, I got the chance to delete them via disk utility, then wiped and reformatted the drive—everything is set now. Your approach will be appreciated; it’s much simpler without having to search for commands online. Thanks!
