TYPE TYPE MEMORY FORMAT WHICH OFTEN WE KNOW ....

~ The file system of Windows OS


• FAT 16 file system is using allocation unit which has a limit of up to 16 bits and can store up to 216 units of allocation (65536 made). For this file system to store up to 4 Gigabyte course and unit allocation is used FAT 16 formatted partition on capacity alone. If less than 16 Megabytes new windows using FAT 12.

• FAT 32 is the new file system was present. the late released by Microsoft Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2, why most new because it uses a 32 bit.

• NTFS (New Technology File System) file system is populated where many families os Windows NT consisting of NT 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x. Berkasi system has a simple design but simple though still better than the FAT file system family.

~ UNIX file system and its derivatives

• EXT 2 (Second Extended File System), created by Remy Card, the file system that is extensible and powerful the linux os.
To create a file system that is powerful, it can understand the file - the file semantics of UNIX. Among the basic ability to EXT 2 is:
1. Can set the file - the file system created in large partition.
2. Was also able to make a name - long file name, max 255 characters.

• EXT 3 (Third Extended File System) is a journal file system, because it is made by design to protect the data therein. Among the capabilities / excellence at this 3-EXT:
1. Availability
2. Data Integrity

• EXT 4 (Fourth Extended File System) is a complete and stable release of kernel 2.6.28 started so if your distro has a kernel by default. For excess at this 4 EXT:
1. Designed to give a good performance.
2. Can increase capacity up to 1 Exa byte (1,048,576 Tera bytes).

• JFS (Journal File System) file system is the first to introduce journaling. For JFS itself has been used by the IBM AIX ® OS prior to use GNU / Linux. At JFS currently using the fewest resources than the file system GNU / Linux.

• ReiserFS journals possess the most rapid and similar characteristics - traits EXT3. File system was based on a fast free balance. ReiserFS is more efficient in the utilization of disk space. For the existing deficiencies in the ReiserFS filesystem is not perfect if installed in the / or / boot (as LILO - the Linux Loader does not fully support this filesystem) and the second is the quota system does not yet support user. So while reiserfs apply it to the / usr, / var and other partitions that do not have user quotas feature
