7. Now please pay attention. Select the third option “Format the partition using the NTFS file system”.
The reason is that the benefit of formatting FAT32 is that all operating systems will recognize your flash drive, whether it be Windows, OSX, or Linux. If you format NTFS you will only be able to use the drive on Windows based operating systems. One of the downsides to FAT32 is that the maximum size for a single file is 4GB, however if you format as NTFS this problem will be resolved.
