>Mexican Coke contains sugar rather than high-fructose corn syrup You mean US coke contains HFCS rather than sugar? Because it uses regular sugar in most of the world. The USA is the outlier here, not Mexico.

By "several filesystems", you mean Windows? NTFS can handle it, but Windows can't (presumably due to using it for drive letters).
