Thank you for the reply. I'm pretty sure of ZFS support for Linux. I looked further in to it for Mac OS X and it turns out they don't have ZFS support yet.
As for Windows, some claim you can use Dokan (

I was considering ext2 as a fallback, thank you for the suggestion. I just figured there might be something newer that would be better suited to the job.
