Note: In almost all cases, it is best to leave the allocation unit size at default. If you
are not dual-booting, it is recommended that you use NTFS as the file system (you
can also select FAT16 or FAT32). Dynamic partitions cannot be created on an
external hard drive. The Windows 2000 and Windows XP Disk Management

support.microsoft.com and search for Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 184006
for additional information.
