ext32? Do you mean exFAT? The older MS non-NT is FAT32 (win9x).

Anyway: NT (Windows) needs NTFS. Linux ext4, Apple which ever FS the installed MacOS is using.

exFAT and FAT32 are only useful to copy between different OSes.

Also I'd reformat any new drive to avoid supply chain malware, shovel-ware and ensure the file system matchs the OS in use if it's not for "sneaker net" use.


Yes, it should be NTFS for your OS and application.
