    Nadedetect naman siya sa laptop after connecting sa USB ng TV.

    Any recommended application to format an External HDD na naka NTFS to FAT32?

    Try to check the brand and go to their website. You should be able to download their utility software like Max Blast for Maxtor.

    Take note that there is a certain limitation of FAT32, I think it is the capacity per partition or the capacity to transfer a single file larger than 2 GB.

    What is the meaning of "certain limitation of FAT32... capacity per partition or the capacity to transfer a single file larger than 2 GB"?

    Pang partition ba yung Max Blast for Maxtor?

    First, note that there are three varieties of FAT: FAT12, FAT16, and
    FAT32. Many people call FAT16 just FAT, because before FAT32 came out,
    FAT16 was the only variety used for hard drives, so just calling it
    FAT was sufficient.

    FAT12 (hardly used at all anymore) had a maximum volume size of 12mb.
    It was used almost exclusively for floppy disks.

    FAT16 was used on hard drives (or partitions) up to 4GB, and had a
    cluster size that varied from 2kb to 64kb, depending on the size of
    the partition. It is almost never used anymore, because almost nobody
    has partitions as small as 4GB.

    FAT32 took over from FAT16 and has a maximum drive size of 2TB. Its
    maximum file size is 4GB, which is why you can't copy a 5GB file to
    it. Its cluster size is 4KB up to a partition of 8GB. Above 8GB the
    cluster size grows up to 32kb.
    NTFS is what almost everyone should be using on their hard drives
    today. Its maximum volume size is 2^^64-1, and its maximum file size
    is 16 × 1024^^6 bytes (way more than the biggest hard drive available
    today). Its cluster size stays at 4kb, regardless of the volume size.
    What is the maximum file size FAT, FAT32 & NTFS file systems - Microsoft Community

    Similarly, a 32bit computer could only read up to 4GB RAM including the video mem.
