Hi Readers,
I'm back here again. Bought 4G Flash today £16.99 . Whether
its a good price
I seem to think so. Paid that price about 3 year for 250mb.

However , what would be the best Format ? its currently at FAT32 clean at
the moment
i have several others of these drives and i have converted them to NTFS . I
dont have any
problems. I have been using MP3 storage also.

Leave it at FAT32. (It's more universal that way).

Why? And for a flash drive, why even bother.

The format of them is up to you and your usage.

You gain nothing really with media that small - to use FAT32 or NTFS. Some
would say security - but the truth is - anyone who gets it could take
ownership of everything on it as long as they have access to a Windows XP or
above machine they have administrative rights on.

When you start getting above 4GB - that is when you might consider NTFS -
since then you might actually have room to put files larger than 4GB (single
file) on it.
