Ok, but I think that exfat is better than ntfs, on cards and sticks at least. It is optimized for that use.
Is it actually optimised in any way? I'm using vfat for the EFI partition and ext4 for root.
Huh, I misunderstood your question. Please ignore the next paragraph, it does not pertain to this subthread.
I'm certain. Not the filesystem, but the hardware. The USB sticks are often optimized for FAT, assuming the first partition, in the manner they partition and format it when sold - meaning that the FAT falls on exactly the sectors they designed for it. Those "flash sectors" are smaller than the rest of the chip, and /perhaps/ strengthened.
On the other hand, exFAT is optimized for sticks and cards. I have not read the specs, so I do not know how. My guess, there should not be a fixed FAT area. I must read on that.
