At the present, Paragon Software has a driver which ostensibly can be integrated into the embedded Linux running on the Touch and provide HFS+ (Apple Macintosh) and ext4 (Linux). These two filesystems support file volumes up to 16TB which is good to know as hard drive capacities grow.
I prefer to listen to all of my music locally. That's it. Not a matter of speed or anything else for that matter. Some folks are hung up on really fast hard drives 10,000 RPM. That's a waste. 5400 RPM hard drives are more than adequate for music files, and the drives will probably run cooler and last longer than drives with faster access speeds. Am looking to make it easier for people regardless of platform so they can partition and format their hard drives in one manner and not have to worry about file systems between their network storage and local storage. Make it all truly plug and play.
