An NTFS drive can be used as a source drive for your collection, but not as an export drive. You need to use a FAT32 or HFS+ formatted drive for use with a CDJ / XDJ.
I have one usb-drive fornated in Fat32 and the other is formated in NTFS
my question is? will I be able to load wave forms in rekord box and play that NTFS usb drive on my CDJ-2000NXS2's media players? I don't want to put 5,000 + songs on that NTFS drive and not be able to play it on my CDJ's

Ok, but here's what I did, I put all of the content of that NTFS drive on my laptop PC to play in performance mode, that way, I don't need to have a usb-drive ,
as everything (all my 5,000 + songs) will be there for me to play in Rekordbox while using performance mode, so is this even possible? right now it's loading up all of the songs in my playlist
but, it's kinda slow as I have over (5,000 to 7,000) songs and about (15,987) songs loacated in the rekordbox collection, my laptop windows PC has plenty of drive space, as I have a 2TB drive and a 1TBSSD.......
Yes; as mentioned above, you can use that NTFS drive with rekordbox as the source - playing within rekordbox DJ (performance mode) or even linking to players (export mode) will be just fine. What you can not do is connect an NTFS drive directly to a player.
Yes, that is what I thought, it's working fine and when I use rekordbox the music files are all ready to be played/mixed in performance mode, so I'm good to go.....
Many Thanks ;-)
