FAT32
FAT32 is used to create much larger partitions
than what you can with FAT16.
NOTE: FOR THE SAMSUNG SECRETZONE,
THE MAXIMUM FILE SIZE IS 2 GIGABYTES.
TABLE 2. Pros and Cons of FAT32
Can read/write on
most operating
systems
Can only handle files up to
4 Gigabytes
Non-IT
environments.
More for home or
individual use
Partitions can be as
large as 2 Terabytes
Partitions using a Windows
operating system can only
be as large as 32 gigabytes
File transfer using a
disk is probable since
file sizes must be
smaller than with
NTFS
If you lose power while
working, you may corrupt
the FAT and you take a
chance of losing your data
NOTE: THE FAT32 FILE SYSTEM LIMITS THE
SIZE OF ANY FILE ON THE DRIVE TO A
MAXIMUM OF 4GB. TO ENSURE RELIABLE
OPERATION UNDER FAT32, SECRETZONE
LIMITS EACH VIRTUAL DRIVE'S SIZE TO A
MAXIMUM OF 2GB. WINDOWS PC OWNERS
WHO WISH TO UTILIZE CAPACITY
GREATER THAN 2GB SHOULD REFORMAT
THEIR EXTERNAL SAMSUNG DRIVE TO
NTFS IN THE WINDOWS OPERATING
SYSTEM
