The rule is that a disk less than or equal to 32 GB should be formatted as
FAT32, whereas disks larger than 32 GB should be formatted as ExFAT.
Exception: for interoperability with Linux, always use FAT32. This works
because the overhead required for maintaining the directories and FAT is abou
Ok, I'll go with MS DOS then.
Thank you all for your contributions in helping me to find the right file

Hi,
NTFS is readable by OS X but not writeable without diving into the Terminal or
using some third party utilities. In Disk Utility, your choices for making
drives accessible by both Windows and Mac are FAT32 and XFAT. FAT32 should do
