Default How to format 320GB drive to FAT32
Replied to [emil_lam]s message :
-----------------------------------------------------------
I just bought the mentioned 320GB HDD and intended to copy over 60GB
files from old UDMA 33 HDDs which were all formatted in FAT32.
Windows XP only gave NTFS as partition type option. Since NTFS & FAT32
partitions were incompatible, I couldn't copy the files to this new
drive unless I changed all my old drive partitions to NTFS.


You can copy files from Fat32 partition to NTFS partition without any loss.
