1. Can we create a fat32 system in crad with less than 4GB space.

2. FAT32 limits the size of file by 4GB maximum. Is only way of increasing is exFAT or in FAT32 it can be increased

1) Yeah I've used crads down to 512MB without issue.

2) You need more then 32GB per file? Can you split the data across several files?

Regarding 2. If you want files larger than 4 GB, use a file system designed for files larger than 4 GB. In case of M$, they came up with NTFS.

Use a directory instead of a file, and write some simple wrapper functions.

Writing GBytes with a controller? What's that good for?
