Re: [tlug] [OT?]A Hard Drive Question

Has anyone ever formatted an external USB hard drive with anything other
than FAT32?  Is it possible to format one using EXT3 or similar?  If so, are
there any benefits to doing so?

XFS. The benefits are the same as using XFS on your internal hard drive.

The drawbacks are that it is Unix-only, if you consider that a problem. ;)
