Answer Posted / mohammad qasim

FAT has 2 types Fat16 and FAT 32. that is define the
allocation of track and sector. it is fix. but in ntfs we
can allot the size of sector.

The major diff. between FAT and NTFS is security, If you
have FAT partition then Security and Quota tap will not
available.

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
