WinXP: NTFS or FAT32?

I love overclocking and tweaking and doing things for the shear hell of it, but I mainly play games and do average computer stuff, so I was wondering what I should partition my single IDE drive with, NTFS or FAT32? ...I will be using a RAID 0 array in the near future, will that effect it?

I've never used RAID before but I would go for NTFS mainly because it is about just as fast as FAT32 but a lot more stable and I don't want my games crashing on me....have you ever used windows ME...that was fat32....just by saying that most people stay clear away from Fat32...


go NTFS as long as your only using one OS



Spec

Windows XP + NTFS =

I'm going to have to go with NTFS also. Besides being more stable than FAT32, if you ever decide you want to secure your files, you can do that with NTFS permissions.

NTFS is the way to go with XP. FAT32 has no advantages.
