If you access it over the network the disk format does not really matter for smb/cifs (samba) share protocol it could be anything it's meant to translate thats the good part of it ,and creating a directory from another OS should be ok to . On the other hand plugin it in to the PC then it's needs to be ntfs or fat32 (there are some software for ext drives but do they work properly ) But wait did you actually remove the disk from the plug and attached to the win PC and made the folder ? I'm not sure that always work , a full desktop linux can read a windows created directory and work with it , I do not know about squeeze-plug If you do this for the music all the time and it works fine then forgot about then it can read windows created folders just fine .
