Fat-16 drive will only allow a little over 500 files in one directory

According to Wikipedia:
Quote:
The number of root directory entries available is set at formatting time, and is stored in a 16-bit signed field setting an absolute limit of 32767 entries (32736, a multiple of 32, in practice). For historical reasons, FAT12 and FAT16 media generally use 512 root directory entries on non-floppy media, and other sizes may be incompatible with some software or devices (entries being file and/or folder names in the old 8.3 format).[9] Some third party tools like mkdosfs allow the user to set this parameter.[10]
Thus, my Fat-16 drive will only allow a little over 500 files in one directory.
