    Not only that, but the effects are really only going to be noticeable on very large partitions/devices, like terabyte+ size. The typical thumb drive scenario will see no recognizable improvement in load speed. It’s still a nice improvement, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not a change that translates to any real-world improvement for most user cases.

      I had once considered using exFAT for my external HDD, back when I was dual-booting.
      This might have made a difference, had I gone ahead with that.
