Post: Converting NTFS To Fatt 32
02-04-2011, 08:44 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I have a Western Digital My Book 1tb external hard drive. Earlier I ran into the problem of not being able to put a 5gb game on it because the drive was giving me the error that the file was too large. So you solve this problem I converted it to NTFS not realizing that my PS3 would not recognize it. Obviously I would like to change it back without loosing the data that is currently on it. Also if someone could suggest a way I could put large files on it without coming across this error.:banhamma::banhamma::banhamma:

not possible. Fat32 to NTFS is though.

Just backup, Format, then put files back.

Yeah I thought that but my drive is almost full and I have no where to put the files while I convert it.

Dude, you saved my life I didn't even think of it. I found this program call Livedrive and it seems to do what I need. Any suggestions on how to convert the drive back to Fatt 32 once I'm done transferring my files?

Windows has an option for drive management in computer management which is under administrative tools in control panel, but I use a program called Easeus Partition Manager, it's free just google it.
