Hi! I'm using USB Loader GX 2.3 to load wbfs backups from my 1.5TB HDD. It's formatted as NTFS since I also use it on my PC occasionally.

I would like to use Mighty Channels to load WiiWare/VC from my HDD, but since it doesn't support NTFS I'm planning to make a second FAT32 partition for WiiWare/VC and also WBFS's, exclusively for Wii purposes.

But before doing it I have some questions:

1. Does USB Loader GX support FAT32 partitions considering some wbfs files are about 4GB (supposed FAT32 limit) ?
UPDATE: It seems it supports FAT32: USB loader GX and FAT32 - GBAtemp.net I noticed that big games are splitted with maximun filesize to 4,194,272 KB​

2. HDD size is 1.5TB, but the FAT32 partition will be about 100GB, considering the statement of Mighty Channels Guide:
If you plan on using a 1TB or larger HDD forget about using Waninkoko's NAND emulator
does this restriction still apply?
3. Would you recommend me other loader alternatives and/or partition schemes for loading both backups and wiiware/vc?

Thanks a lot for your support!
