formatting a disk for a home NAS

[Shlomo Solomon]

I'm setting up a home NAS - Raspberry PI2, Raspbian, Samba, external
disk. It's meant to serve files to a mixed network - Linux, Windows and
Android devices. The new disk comes formatted as NTFS. My "gut" tells
me to re-format as EXT4 - any comments or suggestions?

Additional info: The files will be a mix of music, video and office
files. I will also be backing up at least one of the Linux boxes on
this server, so there will also be a fair number of small files -
e-mail, config files, etc. In the past I used to prefer ReiserFS, but
over the years, I've gradually moved to EXT4 for new disks.
