1. Making prudent use of resources is not the same a lazy. For many companies, it is policy to stay two generations behind Microsoft's current release of Windows.
2. Self-help meaning doing it yourself, not whining to strangers thousands of miles away.
The point that I am making is that it was your decision to use ExFAT. IMHO, it is the answer to question that no one asked. NTFS is generally considered to be a reliable file system. FAT-based file systems are considered to be anything but. FAT32 and its older siblings use two File Allocation Tables to ensure file system integrity with only limited success. ExFAT uses only one. I cannot escape the feeling that this will not end well.
It's people's ignorance and unwillingness to accept new technology which hinders adoption of the new and improved. This includes self-inhibition by policy. You will not believe how many businesses say they stay on XP because they never bothered to upgrade to Windows 7.
Also, I am not whining but rather citing my own experience for others to relate to, in hopes that a common solution may be found. After all, this is a forum.
As for the file integrity of exFAT partitions, this is only an issue when one removes a drive without safely ejecting it first. And frankly the issue is so rare that I have never experienced this issue myself, after countless drives in exFAT.
Of course exFAT is a necessity when shooting video since it removes the 4GB file size limit of the FAT32 system as well as the maximum partition size. In fact i have found that i have experienced much more problems with FAT32 than exFAT, more the reason why exFAT is superior to FAT32 and why people should adopt it more...
