    If you have or plan to have big files (let's say normal dvd image) then don't even consider fat32

    "You cannot create a file larger than (2^32)-1 bytes (this is one byte less than 4 GB) on a FAT32 partition.."

    NTFS is much more user friendly, you can do more with it. You can compresse files better and in my estimation faster then FAT32.
