Filesystem for Linux and Windows?

Question

linux

Advise FS to create a shared partition for Windows and Linux.
I myself found out this:
1. NTFS
NTFS-3G is slow, loads the processor.
Many people complain about Paragon NTFS (found it on the net), they write that there have been data losses.
2. Ext
There are several drivers for Windows.
But in all there is no support for ext3 and ext4 (there is a third one, but only without a journal, i.e. work with it as with the second one).
There is support in the paragon driver, but they complain about it that it is impossible to go up the folders, you have to start from the root (sometimes such a jamb occurs).
There are no drivers for W7.
3. UDF
It seems to be natively supported in W7.
I created a UDF partition in Linux, I'm trying to write data - I get a message that there is no space, although more than 259GB is free, it's impossible to even create an empty folder.
How is it with him in W7 - I have not checked it yet.
4. coLinux
Too slow solution, although it supports everything.
5. FAT disappears immediately, because. files larger than 4GB.
6. exFAT
Full Linux driver only via FUSE, ie. brakes as with NTFS-3G
Who can advise what?
- Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64
Windows 7 x86_64
Athlon 64
4 GB RAM
HDD SATA 320GB, 1 part

Answer 1

ntfs-3g - for the last 2 years there were no problems at all.

Answer 2

Sucked already more than once, right there, in q & a. NTFS, no options, the weak link is win.

Answer 3

Under Windows there is a plugin for Total Commander to work with ext3:

Answer 4

ntfs-3g did not notice the brakes.

Answer 5

Try in Windows in UDF the formatting section can work.

Answer 6

Since there is no solution that is ideal for both OSes, the correct answer depends on which OS is used more. If Linux is more used, then it is better to make the partition in ext3, and for access from Windows, use the Ext2IFS driver (when formatting the partition, you must explicitly set the inode size 128 ). If Windows is used more, then the partition is in NTFS and support is built into Ubuntu (probably via ntfs-3g).

Answer 8

UDF works in W7. I keep a flash drive in this FS.

Answer 9

I'll write an article about FS, maybe someone will be inspired and make a driver for XFS under win.

Answer 10

So far, NTFS is without options, alas.
