Hmm. Well the drive I put into my Core2Duo 2.33Ghz laptop is faster than 5400RPM, but it is also PATA. And it's a single partition and so EXT3 it is. I don't intend to reformat it anytime soon.

The disk I'm discussing formatting is an external WD "MyBook" 1TB drive. It will be connected via ESATA to a headless 64-bit 1.2Ghz ITX box, or via FireWire to the laptop. So I guess the filesystem might not be the bottlenack anyway.

Keeping it simple: tried and true EXT3.
