FAT16 helped, but FAT32 is the only format in widespread use at this point.
Back in the day, FAT was an 8-bit format and dramatically limited the maximum size of files. FAT, by the way, stands for “file allocation table”, it has nothing to do with weight or size! Fortunately, your Mac system is quite capable of formatting a disk drive or flash drive in FAT format as desired.Ī point of clarification before we go further, however: FAT and FAT32 are the same thing at this point in the evolution of hard disks and drive formats. Mac systems have always been able to work just fine with the Windows-based FAT file system, but not vice-versa: Apple File Systems (AFS) is not Windows compatible.
