Lo people,
I got a WD Passport drive for my inlaws and they've been very good using their new Vista PC< running weekly backups, which I'm pleased they have taken onboard so well (using Vista's back up software)
But it's stopped working, throwing an error message about file corruption.
Is it because it's defaulted to Fat 32 and their backup's have exceeded a certain size? I#m running a disk scan on it at the mo on my PC as it popped into the usb plug and came up with the option... but shall I just format it?
So far they've not used the built in WD software.. asd I don't know how to use it to show them
Advice pls guys... format to NTFS? or leave as FAT32? It'll be used on Vista and XP machines tbh, so FAT 32 might be a tad archaic I guess?
