FAT Choice

I am setting a system for a gentleman and I will have the choice of selecting the type of FAT "FAT32 or NTFS".
Which would you choose and why, so I can explain this to the owner.
Thank you.

Sorry for the delay in responding.

This depends on what the Computer is going to be used for.

If for a Single user at home without a Home Buisness. I would go for Fat32. It is just fine and works great.

If for a buisness of anykind, I would use NTFS. IT has alot better security built in. But it is alittle harder on the system. Thats why I suggest Fat....
