- Problems When You Eject FAT16-Formatted Removable-Storage Devices:
"This problem may be caused by the 8-second write-flush delay on
FAT16 File Systems. This delay was originally created for performance
reasons. FAT16 Partitions range from 16 MegaBytes (MB) to 2 GigaBytes
(GB). This was a common size for HD Drives in the past and has become
popular again as Removable Media Storage sizes increase. FAT12 volumes
do not have this problem because they are primarily used for Floppy
Disks and are not designed to use a write-behind delay." Resolution
