Hacking Not sure what brand of HDD I should get

[dexter222]

The screen has a green flicker and quits to the HBC, Mario Kart Wii, Dawn of a New World, Donkey Kong Country Returns all work, so why is TP giving me so much trouble? First time I ripped it, it only got a 500MB file, so I deleted it and tried again. Nothing. Won't load at all.

OMG you didn't have the cIOS?

I assumed I did, as I used MMM to install WADs generated by ModMii; will post system info in the OTHER thread.

don't second guess based on one inaccurate comment: FAT32 is ideal...even Modmii recommends FAT32....

@Fisherman P: what??? (i find no FAT32 definition even remotely based on what you said anywhere...i'm willing to be wrong, but it doesn't even sound accurate)

EDIT: okay...i done some reading (is wiki ever wrong?

)...i thought the 32GB XP limit was just an arbitrary number chosen by Micro$oft...guess there is some merit behind it...HOWEVER, for the wii, FAT32 still reigns supreme IMO (UNEEK, HBC app loading, etc.)

Sorry for continuing to go off topic... But that 32GB limits is completely artificial and can be considered arbitrary as it is more or less a decision made by Microsoft. For Windows Me, Microsoft enabled the full 32K cluster option so that drives up to 2TB (8TB theoretical) could be formatted with FAT32. But when 2000 and XP were released, and as they supported NTFS, Microsoft hindered their built in formatting tools to prevent FAT32 cluster larger than 16K in order to curb wasted space that comes along with the larger 32K clusters; pitching the more efficient NTFS format instead.
