Hello. There is a good external screw in the box. I want to use it as long-term storage. The question is which FS to choose for it, so that from under Linux and Mac there are the least problems. I don't use Windows at all, but who knows what will be needed in the future. Thank you.

Either as already suggested - ext2, you will have to install the FUSE driver on the Mac,
or use exFAT - the FUSE driver will need to be installed on Linux.
I like exFAT more because then this disk can be connected to Windows without any problems. Miuns is that the FUSE exFAT implementation is still in beta.
