I hooked a drive to a really old laptop I had rebuilt and was missing drivers for a lot of my files. That got me thinking that I need to make sure my files are in the most universal format possible. Documents in pdf and non Adobe pdf reader on all devices and drives, books as epub, sound files as mp3, pictures as jpg. What format would be best for my video files? I am pursuing accessibility instead of lossless storage obviously. I use windows/android devices and vlc media player and have a large codec library but what if I need to connect my drives to a basic device?
