When formatting a new USB flash drive for a client, the client requests the maximum possible file size for single file storage on that device. Given the client's request, which filesystem should you advise against using?
Be sure to read this one carefully! It asks which you would advise against using.
FAT32 is a filesystem with a maximum individual file size limit of 4 GB, which is less than what clients requiring storage of larger single files would need. NTFS, exFAT, and APFS do not have this 4 GB limitation and can store files that are significantly larger, thus making them more appropriate choices for storing large individual files.
