Hi, my internal hard drive is formatted as ntfs and the external hard drive is fat32. Would this cause any trouble at all? I have nearly 9 gb of data on the external hard drive and I am using it as a backup drive. How would I format the external hard drive into ntfs without losing the data on it? Using xp home. Thank you.
