File Systems
• The main purpose of the file system is to store and retrieve
data from the computer hard disk. How the data is organized,
optimized, and retrieved comes from the file system on the
hard drive.
• There are three different file systems available in the Windows
Operating System Environment: FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS.
• When using Windows NT, 2000, or XP, the best file system to
use would be NTFS.
• Both FAT16 and FAT32 file systems maintain two copies of
the FAT (the default and backup copy), but only FAT32 can
use the backup copy as well as the default copy.
