NTFS is much better then fat32 since ntfs is the New Technology file system that Microsoft have developed it is faster, has much more security features and allows to apply security settings per file which is not possible on fat32.

NTFS is much more stable then fat anyways if you have windows xp and want to convert a hard drive from ntfs to fat you can use the convert command at msdos.Originally posted by machinegunkelly
Last time I installed my XP I did Fat32 and my PC ran like utter shit after a few weeks ,
NTFS seems more stable on this install .

NTFS is better because you can decide how big you want your hard drive sectors to be. This can give you a lot more usable space on your hard drive versus FAT16 and FAT32.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

Yeah, NTFS is better. The only problem is that I keep my windoze installation kit on my hard drive (I hate installing it from a CD), so if there's a problem and I have to reinstall windoze, I have to do this within a MSDOS session, and MSDOS don't recognize NTFS, so I'm in deep shit. That happened to me a couple of times, and from then on FAT32 is the anwer for me... Pretty dumb, huh?Comment

NTFS will save more space, but if you plan on installing an OS like win98 then you need fat32.Comment

Fat32 can handle large files ...Originally posted by mattyboy
I'm pretty sure that FAT 32 doesn't handle files over 4 (or 5??) GB.
