How compatible is NTFS with Linux? I am considering getting an
external hard drive for use as a back-up device, but as far as I can
tell, it may well have NTFS and I am not sure how easy it might be to
re-format it. I am thinking here of characters that might or might not
be allowed in file names, total length of file names, and what might
happen to symbolic links. I use ext4 on my system.
Would be grateful for any advice.
Peter Alefounder.
