    Yes Gparted is able to create FAT32 partitions up to 2TB (which is FAT32 limit)

    The only problem with FAT32 is that you can not have files over 4GB, which is a problem sometimes...

    But I guess FAT32 is required for an external drive that will connect to a *nix/*nux sytem, or a mac or a PS3 (*nux like... if I'm correct)

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Awesome. I initially converted all my drives to NTFS to overcome the 4GB file size limit, but then ran into too many compatibility issues, so I'm trying to revert some of them back.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    As with any powerful tool, just be cautious not to lose data.
    I have one rig where 2 disks are the same model and their identification only differs by one digit. So to be safe, I unplug any non useful to the task disk and launch the live session.
    Because at times, you may inadvertly switch who's who, who does what etc...
    That's my approach, others will probably be less cautious than I am.
