I converted my c: drive from Fat 32 to NTFS, using the Win XP SP2 Install
CD. The disk is a 50GB SATA.
1. The cluster size for the NTFS, as shown in the disk defragmenter, is 4
kb. Is this normal?
2. The NTFS master file record as viewed on my defragmenter takes up about 7
GB on my hard drive. The whole installed Win XP system is less than that:
about 4 GB. IOW, the master file record is larger than the active system! Is
this normal?
With my old FAT 32 system, the defragmenter did not even show a master file
system. Did I screw up in the conversion?
The computer is running fine. Should I count my blessings?
