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.
While storage devices usually have their size expressed in powers of 10 (for instance a 1 TB Solid State Drive will contain at least 1,000,000,000,000 (10 12, 1000 4) bytes), filesystem limits are invariably powers of 2, so usually expressed with IEC prefixes.
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
NTFS is optimized for 4 KB [a] clusters, but supports a maximum cluster size of 2 MB [a]. (Earlier implementations support up to 64 KB) [6] The maximum NTFS volume size that the specification can support is 2 64 − 1 clusters, but not all implementations achieve this theoretical maximum, as discussed below.
Windows makes use of the FAT, NTFS, exFAT, Live File System and ReFS file systems (the last of these is only supported and usable in Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2016, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10; Windows cannot boot from it). Windows uses a drive letter abstraction at the user level to distinguish one disk or partition from ...

The increase in disk drive capacity over time drove modifications to the design that resulted in versions: FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and exFAT. FAT was replaced with NTFS as the default file system on Microsoft operating systems starting with Windows XP. [3]
