what about the exFAT filesystem? - it is 64-bit (63-bit?) in any case, the filesystem handles huge amounts of data. - it is supported by windows vista SP1 and 7 (but not by xp prior to SP2) - it doesn't have the shortsighted 32GB limitation imposed by ill-written microsoft software. FAT32 can actually handle a LOT more, but people aren't coding for that because of cross-platform compatibility issues I think. - Support for UTC timestamps - support for TFAT (transactional filesystem standard)
a license from microsoft is required to implement because it has not been released yet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExFAT I am being forced now to move my DJGPP compilers to the DOS world because newer 64-bit OS computers will not execute DJGPP.
