I seem to recall that there is a problem with the formatting of some

such a way as to make them useless for Linux.
Could someone refresh me? Thanks.
Could you be thinking along the lines of something like this?

Windows makes use of the FAT, NTFS, exFAT and ReFS file systems (the
latter is only supported and usable in Windows Server 2012.
Well, that would be a problem. Of course, my first action would be to format the disk for ext3.
Why would you choose ext3 over ext4?
