I assume Ext4 is the latest NTFS driver? I don't know if it or Ext3 is ok or safe. That is what I am asking, and yes I do have data on those disks I want to keep = media storage. I am not going to stream at this time but I may do playback if I can get TV out to work. Mostly I am planning on storing stuff I don't access very often, about 3TB.... but I do not want to loose it.

I plan on putting together a PC from old parts, dual Xeon, 4GB of DDR, ATI 1950Pro, to stick all my extra hard SATA drives in. I am not doing RAID. Each individual drive is partitioned as a Logical NTFS.I don't want to deal with licensing issues so I thought I would run Windows 2000...except it doesn't support HT.... but then I thought this would be a good time to use Ubuntu 9.01. I know it can read NTFS and there is a driver to let it write to NTFS, but how safe, and reliable is this... do I have to worry about Data corruption?
