Do not format a flash drive because that causes un needed stress on it's memory components.

Their file format is Fat32. If I recall, isn't it better for these to be formatted in NTFS format or something like that? If it is better to have the file format in The NTFS format, how do I change it from Fat32 to another format? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, take care.
