Absolutely.

NTFS = New Technology File System...what can it do?

It makes use of your hard drive by way of smaller clusters per track... that in turn reduces hard drive wasted space.

NTFS allows the hard drive to access programs faster.

As for security...fat has none. NTFS has alot.

Want to add a new hard drive to your existing machine, and have it think its extended from the original? No problem - simple volumes allow this in the NTFS. You can extend a hard drive to another and make it appear as one large drive.

There is alot more...but its late and I am sure many others will add to this :-)
