FAT32 is more "open" and flexible for other operating systems to see and utilize 100%.

why do you think you need NTFS?
It came up in a review of my hard drive. It recommended reformatting or converting to NTFS. I looked into it and apparently NTFS is more secure, more efficient at using space etc. I am concerned if I convert or reformat then I won't be able to use it with my Mac like I am able to do now.
