I've just got my hands on a 160 GB external USB hard disk.
Now, this thing comes preformatted with a FAT32 (vfat) file system.
When I unmount the thing I can't reformat the drive with a decent
file system like ReiserFS, JFS, ext2 or ext3 from be it the MCC or
by hand. I can't even re-partition it with FAT32 ?
So here it goes : will this FAT32 file system become fragmented
over time like any other Windows file system ?
If yes, how to defrag it ?
Or, will I have to move the FS to another drive back-and-forth in
order to defrag ?
TIA
