Marlboro 0 Posted November 22, 2000 What file system do you use? I think its not important... Share this post Link to post
Four and Twenty 0 Posted November 23, 2000 I use FAT, FAT32, and NTFS. In my main system it is fat32 on c: for winme with all other partitions (D: - H: ) are NTFS. I use NTFS for win 98 in win me to allow me to view the drives as if they were native fat volumes. On my othersystem that i just built out of scrap parts is fat16 and running DOS 6.22 and WINME. I will most likely use a triple boot dos winme and win2k setup on that when i get more ram for it the new drives that i add to that system will be formated NTFS and i will probably setup NTFS for win98 on that computer aswell. I think that NTFS is better for large volumes security. FAT is good for compatibility and sh1t. When whistler is final i will be finally able to drop 9.x and DOS all together and then i will certianly use NTFS only. I would highly recomend building a second system out of old parts as it is a fun way to make a decent system with little or no cash. ------------------ My System Dell Demension XPS T500 Dual Boot Windows 2000 Pro 2195 Windows Millennium Final PIII @ 500 Mhz (with after market heatsink and dual fan) 256 Megs Ram TNT2 Ultra Graphics Card Matrox Millennium PCI (for second monitor) 3Com 10/100 Ethernet Card 3Com 56k Modem 12.6 Gig Maxtor HD 19 Gig Maxtor HD 40X CD Rom Drive 100 Mb Zip Drive MS Explorer Mouse MS Natural Keyboard Pro [This message has been edited by Four and Twenty (edited 23 November 2000).] Share this post Link to post
clutch 1 Posted November 23, 2000 I use NTFS on all my machines. I format partitions greater than 2GB with 4KB clusters. ------------------ Regards, clutch Share this post Link to post
