Some features that are available when you choose NTFS:
• File encryption allows you to protect files and folders from unauthorized access.
• Permissions can be set on individual files, as well as on folders.
• Disk quotas allow you to monitor and control the amount of disk space used by individual users.
• Better scalability allows you to use large volumes. The maximum volume size for NTFS is much greater than it is for FAT. Additionally, NTFS performance does not degrade as volume size increases, as it does in FAT systems.
• Recovery logging of disk activities helps restore information quickly in the event of power failure or other system problems.
