Looking to convert my hard drive to FAT32 in order to play videos on the xbox & playstation.

Currently NTSF and exFAT are my only options.

I tried Aomei but it said there was a problem with the clusters. Is there a program that actually does work, without partitioning the drive? Thank you!

If the drive is above 2TB, NTFS and exFAT will be the only options (FAT32 can support up to 16TB with different settings, but not worth it). If it's smaller, you'll probably want to format it first on one of your consoles.

The xbox one should support NTFS and exFAT just fine, and PS4 might support exFAT.

The hard drive is 320gb I think. I dont have it plugged in at the moment. But to update my situation. I reformatted it in NTSF just to wipe it clean for a fresh start. Then, through the Aomei software, I formatted it to FAT32. I put a video on it, and it still isnt working.

Im not even sure if the problem is that its not actually FAT32, there is an issue with the drive (although checkdsk said it was fine), or if the world just hates me.

Lastly, I couldnt get my Xbox360 or PS3 to play anything with the NTSF. Good to know that the XBOX One and PS4 dont have that issue, though.
