Windows 2000 Server: Fat 32

Fat32 is the 32-bit version of FAT. It was first introduced in 1996 with Windows 95, OEM (original equipment manufacturer) Service Release 2 (OSR2). Fat32’s many advantages over FAT16 include the following:

1 - Disk partitions can be as large as 2TB (terabytes).

2 - More safeguards were added to provide fault tolerance in the event of disk failure.

3 - It improves disk-space by reducing cluster size.
