Is it safe to write to a vfat32 partition?

I have an HP-Pavilion with a 40GB main drive which has
Windows on it and a 8GB secondary drive on which I
mounted FC5.  Needless to say, I'd rather have MP3's,
jpeg's and such on the big drive. 

I've got it set up so I can mount the Win drive
read-only. Since, I believe I read it somewhere, that
writing to a VFat partition can sometimes cause
errors.

Is this true?

Any comments will be appreciated

George
