ik ben er niet zeker van aangezien wiki zichzelf wat tegenspreekt, maar fat16 is al heel oud (en toen waren harde schijven van 1 gigabyte al duur. Laat staan 1 van 4)
Uit de volgende links op google haal ik dit;
Since FAT16 is limited to 2GB per partition, drives that use it tend to have multiple partitions. The first partition is the Primary Partition, and everything else is stored in the Extended Partition. It's a little tricky when it comes to reading those extra partitions though (not a lot, just a little). The first record in the partition table shows where the Primary partition is (how big it is, where it starts, and where it ends). The second entry in the partition table shows where the Entire Extended Partition is (which may include more than just one partition). To read any more partitions, you go to the where it says the Extended Partition starts, and read the first sector. It acts just like the MBR. It'll have blank where the code is supposed to be, and in the partition table it will have for it's first entry the next Partition in the Drive, and if there are anymore, there will be another Extended partition, just like before. However, all references to Sector Numbers are made using the that new MBR point as the reference, making it a virtual drive. Just incase this doesn't make much sense (and by the way I explain things I can understand if it doesn't), let me show you how a drive with three partitions is setup.
Misschien als je er een 2 gigabyte partitie op zet dat je 2 gigabyte kan gebruiken, maar hoe je camera daarop gaat reageren weet ik niet (zelfs niet of een SD kaartje partities toelaat).
