Memory Card Format fat 16/32???

I have just recieved a sandisk 256mb sd card and cruzer and it seems the format is plain old fat, I was thinking of formatting it to fat 32???
Just downloaded Storagetools reccomended
What file system I should use FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32?
It depends on the storage card size.
For larger cards, 64MB and up, the answer is almost always FAT32.
FAT32 can be incompatible with digital cameras.

can the gs3 use a sd card that is ntsf?

Can i keep my 32gb micro sd in ntsf format? or will my gs3 not like it?
Short answer No
It will make you re-format and you will lose the data on the card.
I had this problem when I first installed my new Micro SD card.
Exfat
format your sd card as ExFat.. That will let you use it to store files larger than 4gb. I currently have a 32gb card formatted as ExFat and have 3 1080p movies at about 6-8gb each loaded. works great and I dont notice any slowedowns becuase of the format type.
give it a go, just backup your card first and then copy it all back after you have formatted! :good:
ok ill format exfat asap. thank you.... on a different note, i was reading that the note supports ntsf. so i just figured the gs3 would.
Wouldn't flashing the Siyah kernal give him ntfs support? I use this kernal and I can connect a 1Tb harddisk formatted in ntfs. Havent tried it with an sd card though
I've formatted the SD card as FAT32 and CMW recovery still telling me cannot mount SD card.

Try NTFS because it provides more space. FAT32 is by default.
