I disagree, FAT16 was used more often than FAT12.

I thought NTFS was the way to go? Surprised to see it here.

FAT16 was common too, but FAT12 is the classic.

FAT32? Nah, that's too modern for floppies.

Definitely FAT12 for floppy disks!

I’m a bit confused; I thought FAT16 was used for larger disks, but I guess it could be FAT12 for floppies?

I feel like I saw a practice question about this, and it mentioned FAT32 being more for larger drives, so that can't be it.

I remember studying file systems, and I think FAT12 was specifically designed for floppy disks, right?

I think floppy disks typically used FAT12, but I'm not entirely sure if FAT16 was also common.

I'm pretty confident the answer is FAT12. Floppy disks were an early storage technology, so the file system would have been one of the older FAT variants, and FAT12 was commonly used on those smaller-capacity disks.

FAT32 seems like the most likely answer here. Floppy disks were around before NTFS became the standard, and FAT32 was a more common file system for older storage devices.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know floppy disks were an older storage medium, but I can't remember the specific file system they used. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This one seems pretty straightforward. Floppy disks were used back in the day, so I'd expect the file system to be something older like FAT16 or FAT12.

I agree with Marva, FAT12 makes sense for floppy disks.

NTFS? On a floppy? That's like putting a Ferrari engine in a tricycle!

C'mon, who even uses floppy disks these days? FAT12 all the way!
