I'm running EndeavourOS and Windows 11. Each OS is on a separate disk, but I have a data disk that is currently NTFS that mount in both OSes. NTFS causes problems for some things in Linux, and I'm worried it'll bork the drive for windows eventually, so I'm keen to find an alternative. I've read about the WinBTRFS driver so wondering if that is a better way to go?

I don't want to run a server with a share to access this data because it is way to slow for my needs.

    I would use exFAT for a shared data drive. Just don't use it for programs since it lacks unix file permission support.

    BTRFS works for me.

    I tried NTFS, but Steam games won't run from NTFS partitions under Linux.
