There are various difference between FAT32 and NTFS. Like With FAT32 you can not make the partition of more than 2TB. And where else in NTFS there is 16TB .

In NTFS you assign different permissions to file but in FAT32 this feature is not available. To check right click on any folder of file go to permission and then in security tab.
