Hi,

Due to some project requirement I need MFT file size fixed. as we know, MFT file size increases as number of files grows and it uses space from MFT zone. is it possible make MFT file size fixed? Or is there any alternative way so that we can keep all NTFS meta data file size fixed. Please help me.

Thanks,
Ganesh

Perhaps the project requirements should change, or the entire project rethought? Why would you want to restrict what I can do with the file system, simply because a variable MFT size is inconvenient for you?
