Chris,
Good guess, but no. I'm using my Raq2 to backup files/photos/etc from my
mac. My understanding is that Apple uses HFS+ to allow for rich metadata in
the file system (for use with Spotlight), metadata which I think is
currently lost in my backups.
I don't claim to know the ins and out of file systems, but it seems like a
good thing to have my backup on the same FS as the original if at all
possible.
