All of this means wasted drive space, and this is partly why compressed drive software (see the 'Neat and Tidy' box) can be so effective. The problem has got worse as hard drive sizes have increased, since with each doubling in drive size, the cluster size also doubles. In one classic case, someone upgrading from a 500Mb drive to a 1Gb version found that after copying his files across, they took up 700Mb, simply because so many suddenly occupied double their previous space on the disk. A new version of the FAT (FAT32) will appear in a future upgrade to Windows, which will apparently tackle the problem more intelligently, with an unlimited number of file entries, and 4K clusters with any drive up to about 8Gb.
