I didn't mean converting to FAT32. We had a similar
discussion recently. some people think it's nuts, but I
like to use FAT32 data partitions with Win7+ or
Linux, rather than wrestle with file restrictions I
have no use for. So I'm not saying convert to FAT32.
I'm just saying have storage area that's FAT32.
