Crabhunter Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I created a small NTFS partition to share data between my various operating systems. I'm a bit concerned because I've read that the various methods of writing to an NTFS partition creates errors on it. Any views on this one?

dmazar Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I'm using ExFat. Allows files bigger then 4 GB, while FAT32 does not. 3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/287770-best-file-system-for-a-shared-win8osxlinux-data-partition/#findComment-1905286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabhunter Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Ok ExFat it is, never used it but I've just formatted it so I'll see how I get on. Thanks.
