Do you recommend formatting removable drives to NTFS? How does that affect
portability? I want to store ripped video from my camcorder on there and
FAT32 won't allow them on the drive (too big).

I used NTFS due to the file size limitation. I would probably use ext3 if Windows had a driver for it built in.
