It's no secret that SSDs suffer from performance penalties when it comes to small random writes. Even though more modern SSD try to solve some of these issues hardware-wise, software can also play a major role. Instead of resorting to things like delaying all writes until shutdown and storing them in RAM, SanDisk claims it has a better option. At WinHEC yesterday, the company introduced its Extreme FFS, which it claims will improve write performance on SSDs by a factor of 100.

I dont know the exact limit of fat32. (ive only used a 400gb disk with fat so far) But ther filesize limit of 4gb is a showstopper non the less, so they need something new and as NTFS isnt as free as fat is so i guess its up to the hardware guys to make something new, probably with a fat32 comp-layer or so. Im sure those guys just make it wirk, just like they have come through for us before.
