fat32

File Allocation Table (FAT) is a file system developed for personal computers and was the default file system for the DOS and Windows 9x operating systems. Originally developed in 1977 for use on floppy disks, it was adapted for use on hard disks and other devices. The increase in disk drive capacity over time drove modifications to the design that resulted in versions: FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, and exFAT.
FAT was replaced with NTFS as the default file system on Microsoft operating systems starting with Windows XP. Nevertheless, FAT continues to be commonly used on relatively small capacity solid-state storage technologies such as USB flash drives, SD cards, MultiMediaCards (MMC) and eMMC because of its compatibility across operating systems and embedded systems, and ease of implementation.

    USB keeps rescanning my files (First EV)

    Hi all, I bought my 5 series a week ago, and i'm loving it. It's my first ev. The only thing I can't solve is the usb music rescanning all my files (64 gig - 5k files) every time the car is turned on. Is there a special way to structure the usb stick? (tried formatting ntfs/fat etc... no help)...
