Hmm... your use of the term "overhead" gave me cause to pause. I guess I should have 
posed the opposite question.

NTFS was supposed to offer improved recovery from disk crashes. I guess this feature 
is sorta like the RESTORE function in WinMe -- which never worked very well.

Since my computer will not be on a network, it sounds like I should use FAT32. Thanks 
for the heads-up on this.
