According to Microsoft Tech Support: Article Q155003

FAT32 uses smaller clusters (that is, 4K clusters for drives up to 8 GB in
size), resulting in 10 to 15 percent more efficient use of disk space
relative to large FAT16 drives.

NOTE: I believe they have not tested this completely sine this is limited to
the boot partition may not be larger then 7.8 GB due to hardware
limitations of INT13.

  Current technology (Enhanced INT13) supports hard drives over 7.8GB hard
drives.

  Also I maybe incorrect. I set the hard drive up for a customer and I was
even suprised that the drive went all the way out.
