- Description
- FAT (File Allocation Table) is a robust and simple file system that is used by the OS to manage files (i.e., reliability, performance, and scalability) on computer systems and hard drives. It is compatible with almost all computers, digital cameras, flash drives, mobile phones, and other portable devices; hence, it's common to use.
- The TXZ file format is a combination of TAR archiving and XZ compression. It is used to pack multiple files into a single archive (TAR) and then compress it using XZ compression to reduce the file size. The TAR aspect allows for the collection of various files and directories into a single file, preserving their structure and attributes. The XZ compression, known for its high compression ratio, further compresses this archive, making the resulting TXZ file more efficient for storage or transmission.
