Apologize for my bad english.
My switch with 7.0.1 firmware create a generic hierarchical file system on my sandisk 400 sd card.
Also (tethered) almost 27gb , so my free space is about 366 gb.
Is it something wrong here? Is this exfat file system?
Thank you.

With formatting you never get the full amount of space of any storage device. Not sure what the calculations are, yes that is most likely correct.

No idea. If you updated your Switch to 7.0.1 and it didn't come from the store like that then your Switch supports exFAT, so your SD could be exFAT. You can plug it in to a computer and the right click the SD card and click properties. That will tell you for sure.
