PC DOS 1.x file attributes included a hidden bit and system bit, with the remaining six bits undefined. At this time, DOS did not support sub-directories, but typically there were only a few dozen files on a diskette. The PC XT was the first PC with an IBM-supplied hard drive, and PC DOS 2.0 supported that hard drive with FAT12 (FAT ID 0xF8 ...
Like NTFS, exFAT can pre-allocate disk space for a file by just marking arbitrary space on disk as "allocated". For each file, exFAT uses two separate 64-bit fields in the directory: the valid data length (VDL), which indicates the real size of the file, and the physical data length.

Older kernels may use backported NTFS3 driver or ntfs-3g [72] Read only, write support needs Paragon NTFS or ntfs-3g: Needs 3rd-party drivers like Paragon NTFS for Win98, DiskInternals NTFS Reader: Yes No Yes with ntfs-3g?

NTFS 1.0 is incompatible with 1.1 and newer: volumes written by Windows NT 3.5x cannot be read by Windows NT 3.1 until an update (available on the NT 3.5x installation media) is installed. [19] 1.1 Windows NT 3.5: 1994 Named streams and access control lists [20] NTFS compression support was added in Windows NT 3.51: 1.2 Windows NT 4.0: 1996
exFAT is supported in macOS starting with version 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard). [32] Support in other operating systems is sparse since implementing support for exFAT requires a license. exFAT is the only file system that is fully supported on both macOS and Windows that can hold files larger than 4 GB.

A basic data partition can be formatted with any file system, although most commonly BDPs are formatted with the NTFS, exFAT, or FAT32 file systems. To programmatically determine which file system a BDP contains, Microsoft specifies that one should inspect the BIOS Parameter Block that is contained in the BDP's Volume Boot Record .
MFS – TiVo's Media File System, a proprietary fault tolerant format used on TiVo hard drives for real time recording from live TV. Minix file system – Used on Minix systems; NILFS – Linux implementation of a log-structured file system; NTFS – (New Technology File System) Used on Microsoft's Windows NT-based operating systems
As the ReadyBoost cache is stored as a file, the flash drive must be formatted as FAT32, NTFS, or exFAT in order to have a cache size greater than FAT16's 2 GB filesize limit; if the desired cache size is 4 GB (the FAT32 filesize limit) or larger, the drive must be formatted as NTFS or exFAT. The performance differences between these file ...
