For data storage small USB keys, I tend to alter file system on USB keys
from ExFAT or FAT as they come to NTFS, as this retains the ability to
use in both Linux and MS Dos/Windows systems and store larger files.
I have never considered this. NTFS is something about which I know
nothing. As I said in a previous reply, I have always reformatted any
new sticks to ext4 as the very first job. This has never caused me any
problems.
