TOS, DOS and Windows compatible)
maximum partition size
FAT16 : 2 GB tested: 2 GB
FAT32 : > 16 TB tested: 10 GB
maximum file size : 2 GB tested: 2 GB
block size : 512 byte - 32 kb tested: 512 byte - 32 kb
physical blocksize must be smaller or
equal to logical blocksize : yes
tested with physical blocksize > 512 byte : not yet tested
