INCREASE CAPACITY OF YOUR FLASH DIRVE BY CHANGING ITS FORMAT TO NTFS.
There are many kinds of File Systems such as FAT, FAT 32 and NTFS but
one of the main advantage of the NTFS file system that it has a
compression option. Which means if you copy a File with the Size of 50MB
in a Drive with Compression enabled NTFS File System it may take only
30MB.
The file system of Pen Drives are usually FAT and if you don’t Have the
NTFS option on your Pen Drive’s provided software then do the following:
1. Go to Start ->Run -> cmd and press enter.
2.Type convert X: /FS:NTFS( Where X is your Flash Drive Letter)
The File System is now converted to NTFS. Now its time to enable
compression:
1. Go to My Computer and Right Click on your Pen Drive Icon and select
Properties.
2. Select Compress Drive to Save Disk Space and then OK.
3. Then Select Apply To Sub Folders and Files and select ok ( if Asked)
All Done, the free space of the pen drive will increase and if you copy
anything in the drive it will take less space.
