Size of one file in differnet file systems.

[Anita_1986_San]

I would like to know the size of one block in NTFS,FAT32 & FAT16 file systems.

Also,Could anybody help me finding the maximum size of a file allowed by each of this file systems?
Thank's.

Information about the maximum file size of FAT file systems:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table

NTFS file system:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS

Cluster size:

FAT16 32kiB [1kibibyte(kiB) = 1000 bytes, 1kilobyte(kB) = 1024 bytes]

FAT32 4kiB

With NTFS, the cluster size depends on the partition size:

Size of partition:________________________ Cluster size:

512 MB or less------------------------------ 512 bytes
513 MB - 1,024 MB (1 GB)--------------------1,024 bytes (1 KB)
1,025 MB - 2,048 MB (2 GB)------------------2,048 bytes (2 KB)
2,049 MB and larger--------------------------4,096 bytes (4 KB)

Hope this helps!
