NTFS is a far more secure and reliable format.
Best to convert, and probably safest to copy its contents to another
drive, then reformat. Theoretically you can convert to NTFS with data
on the drive, but as it can take a long time, all you need is
somethning like a power failure,and you are screwed.

Subject: [access-uk] Hard Drive, FAT32 or NTFS
Hi List.
I notice that my C Drive and one of my external hard drives is NTFS,
but the other external drive is FAT32.
Does this mix and match matter, or should all drives be uniform?
In case its relevant, the two NTFS drives are 80 and 400 GB in size,
whilst the FAT32 drive is 60GB.
Thanks for any and all clarification.
Darran
