The definitive answer can be seen in the output of
disklabel(8). What is the filesystem type shown for partition
"i"?
NTFS & MS-DOS are two completely different filesystems, however, it sounds like you have a flash drive which are frequently formatted as MS-DOS. If this indeed is the case, then you will be able to successfully read & write to it.
Note that I am simply trying to guess given very limited information. For a precise answer, post the output of
disklabel(8).
