Happy New Year guys !!

My system is a MICRON MPC -166 Pentium  W/ 96MB EDO RAM and $ Diamond
4MB VRAM
I have a WD 6.4GB and partition as :

 Primary  C: 1.16GB = Win98 OS
 Logical  E: 1.96GB = Office 97
          F: 1.40GB = PhotoShop scratch disk & Windows Swap File
          G: 1.49GB = data File & Internet Downloaded Files

WD 3.1 GB partition as :

 Primary  D: 1.49GB = Program Files
 Logical  H: 1.45GB = data filies & copy of WIN 98 CD

All are FAT 16, Is it possible to keep drive C as FAT 16 and convert all
the other drives to FAT 32 ? What is the effect on performance other
than the 4K clusterof FAT 32 instead of the 32K cluster size of FAT 16 ?

In case of a HARD Disk crash , I want all my data to be safe , Where do
I have to save all my data files  & TIFF  & JPEG files from PhotoShop 5.

Please advise for best configuration

Thank u and regards,

Ding Marcelo
