Clint, I would recommend you to format as NTFS. It is far more secure and stable than FAT32, plus it can take any monster drive up to 2.2 TB.

Now when I eventually put XP on my main HD, should I format as
FAT or NTFS?  What are the advantages/disadvantages of NTFS?
When I was checking it out this time, I opted for FAT.
