  Created as an alternative to FAT for NT OS.
    (Journaling)

  Based on MS involvement with HPFS (IBM OS2)

  Supports up to 16TiB using 32 bit cluster numbering.
    Capable of 64 bit number but not implemented.
      (May be implemented on 64-bit OSes)
 
  NTFS (on Win2000, XP Pro) supports dynamic disk on non-boot volumes.
    Dynamic disk suport uses a special database on each volume.
      Suports single partitons up to 16 TiB

      Multiple (spanning) disks can appear as single disk.

      Striping (Raid 0 style) to provide parallel access.
   
      Raid 5 configuration with remote Win 2000 servers.

      Only accessable by Win2000 and XP Pro.

      Conversion back to basic partitions cause loss of data.
