Hey, all i am looking for some advice, i use my Macbook pro as my primary
laptop and would like to have an external drive that is Read/Writable by
OSX/Linux/Windows any suggestions?.. i'm looking for something better then
FAT32 but i think im asking for to much already..

it would be nice if Apple and Microsoft would agree apon a open source
standard file system for 3rd party drives.. i hate using FAT on any thing
over 100gb

Also can any one clear up some misconceptions i might have on EXT2..
i heard if you are using EXT2 and the power goes.. that there is a GOOD
chance the partition of the drive would be corrupted..
is this true? is it really more volitile then FAT?

one of the reasons i ask is there is a EXT2 kernel mod for OSX so i COULD
use an ext2 filesystem on my external hardrives..

Also i have been thinking of investing into a NAS to solve alot of these
delema's granted its not as portable, but if i could find a NAS that
supports USB drives with ext3 this would solve ALOT of my problems...

suggestions?

Thanks!
