Format Large HDD to FAT32

Geeks - In order to format a large hard drive to FAT32, you will need to use a third-party tool. This is because the built-in formatting utility in Windows only supports formatting drives up to 32 GB in size with the FAT32 file system.

Here are the steps to format a large hard drive to FAT32:

Download and install a third-party tool such as Fat32Formatter.

Connect the hard drive to your computer using a USB-to-SATA cable or by installing it internally.

Open the third-party tool and select the hard drive you want to format.

Choose the FAT32 file system and specify any other options such as the allocation size.

Click the "Start" button to begin the formatting process.

It is important to note that formatting a hard drive will erase all data on the drive, so make sure to back up any important files before proceeding.
