I've done some researching in this sub but I've been getting mixed answers about whether to use ext4 (because I use Linux) vs NTFS (I occasionally boot windows) vs one of the FAT systems (many people say not to use this though). I bought a synology NAS which I also plan to back up photos from my phone to, but I'm relatively new so I'm not even sure if that's how it works lmao. Any advice?

edit: yeah sorry for the confusion, I'm not trying to boot off of this thing, I'm just giving examples of the different OS I would be using to interact with it
