Really? Not that I don't believe you, but I haven't seen any NTFS pre-formatted drives yet. Which manufacturer sells these? I have always seen NTFS as something proprietary to Microsoft. Even the 1TB disk I bought recently came with FAT32. Those drives would not work with Linux or with a Mac either, so I suppose they put a warning "only suitable for Microsoft Windows" on the box? NTFS support would be nice to have, without question, but it is not entirely trivial. Think of file ownership and access control lists, for example. -- usch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ usch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33389 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70142 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
