few older 3.5” SATA HDDs, but no problem with
new versions of 3.5” SATA HDDs.

issue with any 3.5 inches SATA HDD ?

provided by Windows systems, the maximum
formatted capacity of FAT32 is 32GB.

A: Yes. NexStar 3 can support multiple partitions with
different formats. You can format it under FAT32 and
NTFS depending on your demand. Only under
Windows ME and Windows 98SE, we recommend
that it’s better to use FAT32 FORMAT to all partitions
because NTFS FORMAT is not supported by
these two OS systems.

provided in the future as hard drive capacity
increases.
