I have a 400-something GB NTFS external, using about 150 gb for old files is there anyway I can create a partition in the NTFS that would be FAT32 and therefore able to run backups from external? Also, if I create a FAT32 partition (if possible), will I lose any data in the process?

Fully format (delete everything) then partition to fat32.

If the purpose of this is for games, NTFS is supported in multiman

Yeah, for games. So I can leave it on NTFS and use Multiman 1.16, back them up to the hdd and they'll run from hdd? I heard everyone talking about formatting to FAT32 before games would burn/play.

We had to format our externals to FAT32 before NTFS support wass released, if you still want to use FAT32 you can use You must login or register to view this content.

SwissKnife works

So I can use NTFS. YAAAAY.

I used swissknife for one of my HDD and it worked just fine. I had a problem with it and had to take it back to compusa and they did a full format but he changed it to NTFS. Used Swissknife and i was done back to Fat32 hurray :420:

swissknife is beast when comes to HDD rather than knifes that surprises us with cool attachments.

Yessir, just put in appropriate folders.

plug the drive in via USB and right click it and press format or you can configure to FAT32
