Davo, Pardon my questions, I always work better when I get real user feedback, Manuals are good for guidelines, however this is my first Buffalo station and not having any co-workers to bounce ideas makes it more difficult.  I am looking to get user feedback from experienced buffalo owners.  Thanks and would still like a suggestion on formatting.

If you have any single files that are larger than 4GB then use XFS, otherwise use FAT32
