Yes, you can.

Use XFS on top of that as it has dynamic inode allocation and can be expanded 
live (but not shrinked).

No. Is only for the "home" files. I need to restore then quickly and
individual.

Not enough details.
Are you backing up the VM from hyper-v?
Are you backing up the VM from within the VM?
Are you backing up the files on the VM or making an image/snapshot?
Does $storage-provider have a preferred protocol?
NFS typically can be expanded on the fly if the needs increase.
iSCSI typically needs “work” like expanding the partition then expanding
the filesystem when more space is needed.

500GB? Buy an eSATA card, external bay, and drop a 4TB drive in.

Hello

I have a CentOS VM with a lots of inodes, and 500GB +/-, running under
hyper-v . Which is best for backup them? What is the pros and cons?
