I am going to buy a big USB hard drive to backup films, music and

Anybody out there tried a 2TB USB hard drive? What did you use as filing
system. I am intending to use ext4. Any comments?
Hi, I use seagate's ST2000DL003-9VT1 (it's some kind of "eco" drive, but
still fast) for that purpose, in raid1. No complains. I have had
disastrous experiences with WD 2TB drives (those "green" monstrosity).
I use gpt partition table, with LUKS and RAID without trouble.
