The most portable filesystem (in my opinion) is FAT32. It has limitations but all (or almost all) operating systems support it.
I have found your thread from last year. Check it again http://daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=10473 |

Yes, I use ext2 to go between Linux and OpenBSD, FAT32 between those and Windows.

The downside of using anything other than FAT is when you forget that your stick is formatted differently (it'll happen unless you mark it somehow) and then scratch your head why it doesn't work on the scanner in the library for instance. Happened to me.

These are my Apacer AH352 drives, with their plastic covers pried off and the bare PCB coated with two layers of epoxy and with different pieces of coloured card on each one. Some of them form tails when I'm hanging them up to set...

Those look nerdy and scary at the same time. Like something out of the Alien movie franchise.
That being said it'll probably make it easier to spot any tampering if you memorise every undulation of the epoxy. |

As mentioned above, if you want to store a very large amount of data on a disk, then you do not need to use any file system at all. You can just write sequentially to the device and fill it up.
A file system is only useful if you want to store multiple files. If you only want to store one file on a device, then you need not bother! |
