To convert FAT32 to FAT

  • 1. Select a FAT32 partition.
    You can see which partitions are labeled FAT32 by looking at the Type column in the partition list.
    2. Click Operations> Convert.
    3. Click FAT.
    The menu command is dimmed if your FAT32 partition contains over 2 GB of data. If the partition size is over 2 GB but contains less than 2 GB of data, you can convert the partition (without data loss), but the new partition will be 2039 MB.
    4. Click OK.

    Tips
    After step 3, ServerMagic may report too many root directory entries (the maximum number of entries in a FAT partition's root directory is limited, unlike a FAT32 partition's root directory). In this case, move or copy some of the files in the root directory to another location and then start the conversion with step 1 again. After completing the conversion, you can increase the number of files in the root directory and move the files back.
