External HDD ExFat vs NTFS?
Go to solution
Solved by Mighty_Miro_WD,
Hi there @Thedudely1!
It depends on which device you're trying to format. For smaller flash based storage devices exFAT will be faster, while on large disk partitions NTFS would be the more logical solution - exFAT is designed to be used more on removable/flash media and embedded storage while NTFS is intended for use on high-density storage mediums, i.e. hard drives and SSDs.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
