I am about to get a 6TB drive. According to the compatibility chart, only up to 4TB EXT4 partitions are supported. So I assume I should format it with 4+2TB EXT4 partitions, and then share that out via Samba so Windows clients can use it like a network share..
Is there anything I should know or be aware of?
Also what's the typical transfer speed in this scenario over Samba from Windows? Pretty slow at only around 150MB / hour? I have around 2-3TB to load up so this could conceivably take all damn week.
