Win 2000 with NTFS v3.1 ?

Hello,

today I noticed something very interisting.
A friend of mine is running Win 2000 with NTFS v3.1 !
This told me Partition Magic v7.0 .
So I am confused, I exepcted Win 2000 uses NTFS v3.0 and not 3.1 . At least I am using Win 2000 and Partition Magic tells me every time NTFS v3.0 !
I am pretty sure he hasn't converted it with a partition programm.
As far as I know WinXP has NTFS v3.1 and NT4 has v1.2 .
He never upgraded or revised an upgrade to another OS.

So I would be interested how this is possible.
Is it possible by a MS Windows Update ? I checked all but didn't find one concerning this issue.
If anybody of you could give me an advise, suggestion or something else, I would thank him very much.

By the way, NTFS v3.1 is safer than v3.0 ... so an update might be useful.

Best regards and happy new year

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
