    wondering does anybody know if the computer suites (especially the physics one) can recognise flash drives with ntfs as their file system (as opposed to fat). my brother thinks that they don't work since his didn't but when it was changed to fat, it did work.
    thanks

    I think they do. I have an NTFS portable harddrive and I've had no trouble reading from or writing to it.
