    Should I Format My USB Flash Drive?

    I will be getting a usb flash drive soon, the Corsair 32GB Flash Voyager GTR. I will use it to make an image (backup) of my whole computer. Now, what should I format it as? NTFS? FAT? or FAT32? What are the advantages/disadvantages of each? And which format is fastest for the highest copy-to speed possible, given that I want to backup my computer, which is 27GB big?
