what is difference between fat & ntfs
Answer Posted / atanu pradhan
NTFS is a much more stable format of partion and is the
newest. If a NTFS partion becomes corrupt, it can sometimes
be recovered with special software. NTFS can also recognize
more space on a Hard Drive and is a much more efficient and
faster format to use
FAT is a very old sort of format and goes all the way back
to windows 95. It can only recognize a very small hard
drives full space. If a FAT partion becomes corrupt then its
next to impossible to recover it. A FAT partion has more of
a chance of becoming corrupt if your computer crashes. FAT32
is a better version of this format but is still flawed. If
EVER offered a choice between FAT and NTFS format then pick
NTFS. It will pay off in the future and straight away.
