the only reason you would EVER want fat32 is if you running win9X, ntfs is better.

was about to say convert to ntfs...

fat32 gives a (VERY) small performance increase over ntfs but has no redundancy for your data. ntfs rocks, the new ntfs they WERE going to make for longhorn (think it was gonna be called winfs or summat) has now been canned but it was gonna be even better...
