Windows 2000 Server: NTFS

NTFS is a file system designed to provide additional features for Windows NT and Windows 2000 computers. NTFS version 5 ships with Windows 2000. Following are some features of NTFS:

1 - Local security settings for files and folders

2 - Data compression to reduce disk storage requirements

3 - Disk quotas, which can be assigned to limit the amount of disk space a user can use

4 - File encryption, for an additional level of security

Unless you are planning to dual-boot your computer to an operating system other than Windows NT, Microsoft recommendations using NTFS.
