INTRODUCTION

Hundreds of different types of file systems have been designed through the years. Only a handful are in common use. Among those are FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS.

FAT16 – The file system used by DOS since version 3.3. This file system can be a maximum size of 2GB, and can be used under Win95/98, Win2000, and Windows NT. It is still a widely used file system. FAT is the acronym of File Allocation Table, with entries that are 16 bit wide, hence the FAT16 name.

FAT32 – Supported by Win98, WinME and Win2000. Entries in the FAT are 32 bits each thus eliminating the 2GB limit and offering improved space efficiency.

NTFS – In use by Windows NT, Win2000 and WinXP. Offers improved access speed, and some security and recoverability features.

The Logicube Omniclone Xi™ is “aware” of the above three file systems and will clone them over “intelligently”.
