I have built a HTPC with AMD Athlon 5350, which was completely sufficient. The system was running Windows 10 running in SSD and big HDD for backups in NTFS. Somehow there is a problem with network transfer speeds between PCs - with Samba I can get speeds up to 100 MB/s in my local network and FTP transfers which I would prefer don't get more than 10 MB/s. No idea why.
Anyway, I decided to build a new PC using Dell 7010 with 3470s. I plan to transfer the backup HDD.
The question is, which setup to choose.
I would prefer to switch to Ubuntu as I was always running Virtual Linux Machines on my previous computer. The question is - how will the NTFS HDD behave if I stay with Linux? Will it limit the transfer speeds? Will it consume lots of CPU when writing/reading? Should I try to reformat the HDD to Linux native FS?
Thanks!
