I hope everyone is aware you cannot just turn off your computer. You must tell 
it to shut down 
via a command or click. Otherwise you will have disk problems.

NTFS is a far safer file system than FAT, FAT32, or even exFAT because it logs 
changes as it 
goes. You should use NTFS even for USB sticks if they don't have to go into 
Macs.
