Hey Linux gurus, I was curious if there is a particular HDD format preferred for an internal media drive? I know there are several different types, and I believe the HDD my OS is on is ext2 IIRC.

I have a brand new 1.5TB drive I'm getting ready to install. I will then transfer my existing media from an NTFS formatted 1.5TB that I need to perform testing on (have seen some 'wonky' behavior from it).

My goal is to (eventually) setup a media server on my CentOS box to serve media to several PS3s over my home network. Any advise suggestions is much appreciated!
