說真的猜不太出來那份資料寫的是那個其他限制,可能是指同一篇文章中其他關於 FAT32 的相關限制:
- Clusters cannot be 64 kilobytes (KB) or larger. If clusters are 64 KB or larger, some programs (such as Setup programs) may incorrectly calculate disk space.
- A FAT32 volume must contain a minimum of 65,527 clusters. You cannot increase the cluster size on a volume that uses the FAT32 file system so that it contains fewer than 65,527 clusters.
- The maximum disk size is approximately 8 terabytes when you take into account the following variables: The maximum possible number of clusters on a FAT32 volume is 268,435,445, and there is a maximum of 32 KB per cluster, along with the space required for the file allocation table (FAT).
- You cannot decrease the cluster size on a FAT32 volume so that the size of the FAT is larger than 16 megabytes (MB) minus 64 KB.
You cannot create a file larger than (2^32)-1 bytes (this is one byte less than 4 GB) on a FAT32 partition.
不過為了相容 與 避免浪費 (
說明),還是建議不要劃那樣大塊的 FAT32... 而如果要放 > 4G 單檔,那那個磁區就不用考慮 FAT32 而請使用 NTFS。
剛查過 PQ web:「Larger partition support - Support for partition sizes up to 160GB*」。
超過 137G IDE 硬碟似乎更麻煩。當然,沒那樣大的硬碟 (偶最大只有 80G),所以如果事實有誤差,也請見諒了。
附註:
若是 Seagate,有 DiscWizard 可用 (磁片,或網路下載),而其 FAQ 寫的也不錯:(
