If you are not using any other OS (Dual boot) then go with NTFS. It is more stable and more secure.

The only reason I can think of to use FAT is if you are running a dual boot with windows and linux. Somehow, your post makes me think you aren't a dual boot kinda guy.

Wow, thanks I never realized file systems could be so interesting.

Sarcasm aside, it's good to see you again. By the way nice link. I actually remember about the second half of that list. Which means I didn't laid much when I was younger. To be honest things haven't changed much since then.

Anyways Cheerio
