Booting to L:
Use NTFS unless you have to use FAT32 Compatibility Windows 95/98/Me cannot recognize NTFS volumes On multiboot systems, you must use FAT32 for any local drives that you want to access when you boot the system using Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me Security NTFS permissions and encryption are not available on FAT or FAT32 partitions Reliability An NTFS volume can recover from disk errors more readily than an otherwise identical FAT/FAT32 drive NTFS can mark bad clusters and stop using them Expandability NTFS-formatted volumes can be expanded without having to back up, repartition, reformat, and restore (if you use Dynamic Disk) Efficiency On partitions greater than 8 GB in size, NTFS volumes manage space more efficiently than FAT32 The maximum partition size for a FAT32 drive created by Windows XP is 32 GB With NTFS, a volume can be up to 16 terabytes (16,384 GB) tip - Avoid FAT16 FAT16 is out of date – maximum partition size 2 GB Don’t use it unless you have to use really old applications or operating systems Appropriate for very small hard-disk partitions only If you must use a FAT16 partition for compatibility reasons, try to keep its size under 511 MB Converting a FAT32 Disk to NTFS convert d: /fs:ntfs Where d is the drive letter you want to convert. If you convert system volume, you must restart Basic and Dynamic Disks – Basic Disk A basic disk is a physical disk that contains primary partitions, extended partitions, and logical drives This is the old disk structure used by MS-DOS, Windows 95/98/Me, & Windows NT 4 The partition table is located in a 64-byte section of the Master Boot Record (MBR), the first sector on the disk A basic disk can have a maximum of four partitions, which can include one extended partition Extended partition can contain multiple logical drives D:, E:, and so on. Basic Disk Examples Four Primary Partitions
Basic and Dynamic Disks – Dynamic Disk A dynamic disk contains dynamic volumes Dynamic disks can only be used by
Win 2000, XP, and 2003 Server A dynamic disk does not have a partition table Information about the layout of disk volumes is in a database stored on the last 1 MB of the disk Dynamic Disk Advantages: Unlimited number of volumes on a disk Physical disks can be combined Spanned volumes – add space to an existing volume Striped volumes – data is stored in equal-sized 64-KB strips across multiple dynamic volumes on separate physical disks to improve performance Dynamic Disk Advantages: Disk configuration information for dynamic disks is stored in a database in a reserved area on the disk itself If you have multiple dynamic disks on a single system, each one contains a replica of the dynamic disk database for the entire system
