Check out my new article here. :)

It's finally here! I was confused over the fact that people say FAT32 is limited to 2TB, that's what slowed me down. Turns out the limit is actually 8TB (what I had calculated in first place).

Let me know if there's any mistakes or things I should add. B)

nice article :) but to nit-pick.. just cause I like doing that :P.... ntfs is not compatible with Windows NT... at least not the same ntfs. NTFS was updated for windows 2000, and that version continues on with XP, but NT 4 used an earlier version of NTFS which is not compatible, nor as spiffy. The no data encryption, no compression, and if I remember correctly, not as much control over permissions.

Never knew about two different versions of NTFS, thanks for letting me know. I might research on it and update the article as needed. :)

Though it doesn't really come up too much, the different versions of ntfs are important to rememeber if you're working with both operating systems, especially if you're doing upgrades from nt4 to 2000.
