What USB partitions to use? - SolGarlic - 23rd Feb, 2013 03:50 AM

I have an external USB disk with 2 partitions, 1GB of NTFS and 1GB of EXT4.

Is there any significant advantage of EXT4 over NTFS?
Would there be any speed improvment if I had xbian installed on an external disk partition? (I have a 8GB class4 SD card)
If so, are there any tutorials for this? (I only found for raspbmc).

Thanks in advance!

OK, I will try and report back here.
Any recommended way to register the performance?

First of all, user experience.
