USB hd and FAT32 format
I connected a new Intenso 2,5" Memorystation 320 GB USB drive and struggled somewhat to get W7 Pro 64-bit to recognize it. Eventually it did and I copied about 20 GB of folders as back up.
All fine but every now and then, while copying, I see a pop-up "Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?" If I hit Yes the copying proceeds. I can unplug and replug and all data still available. Rather than ignoring I scratched around and found that the drive is FAT32 and not NTFS. This seems to be normal with USB drives?
How should I treat this, should I convert or reformat and recopy or use as is because it is normal?
