NTFS or FAT32
« on: April 30, 2005, 05:33:15 PM »
I just got a new hard drive and noticed the tech made it NTFS.  I have another hard drive divided into 3 drives abd it's FAT32.  Is it ok to leave it that way?  ??? I'm using xp home and my NTFS drive is 40GB and the other is 80.

Is using NTFS any better performance wise or not?  I didn't do too much research on it because I was planning to keep using FAT.

Thanks ;D
