converting to ntfs

I am trying to convert my drives from fat32 to ntfs , everything I have read points to that being the best thing to do , but when I tried going to command prompt typed in convert g:/fs:ntfs it ask me for a volume label . what is that and where do I find it ? is there a better way to convert ? or should I just leave things alone ? I have 2 hard drives and 1 is partitioned into 2 seperate drives , I am using winxp . also will it do anything to my files already on my drives when I convert them .

 

convert G: /fs:ntfs

I think that is what you need. Space between G: & /fs

NTFS is a much better file system. You will not be going back to FAT32.

I think the volume label is your drive letter.
