FAT32 requires a license (or at least TomTom may have discovered it did :-) ) One difference is, some applications of EXFAT are covered by FRAND (where EXFAT is defined in a standards doc, as the default filesystem for a certain piece of hardware). In any case, whether license terms are fair and reasonable, or are the normal kind of license terms, equipment makers will not pay a penny more for licensing. It does not latter what the license fee is, they don't want to pay it, whatever it is. NTFS is journaled. NTFS is slightly harder on a USB stick, from a wear perspective. You can improve the characteristics a tiny bit, by disabling "LastAccessed". FAT32 and EXFAT are not journaled. You can set the cluster size on FAT32 and EXFAT (make it greater than or equal to the flash page size). BTFS supports extra large clusters, but the option is not backward compatible (a Win11 NTFS partition with one megabyte clusters, cannot be mounted by Windows XP, or by Windows 7). And that doesn't include testing the Linux response, as if an option isn't intended to be compatible, nobody is going to use it. Paul
