Recently I stumbled across a very nice article, written by Torsten Scheck, published on pro-linux.de, a German Linux site. This article proved to be so helpful to me that I decided it would be worthwhile to translate it into English and republish it. Comments of the translator will be added in italics. I hope a lot of people will find this little gem as useful as I did...

sharing the files via samba or nfs is fine for backup, but that's not really an alternative for me: i need my files "on the road", i have my usb disc and i have to plug it into a usb port of someone's windows machine often enough.
alo, ext2/3 drivers for windows are also not really an alternative (i know and also use them on my laptop, they are fine!). i wouldn't want to mess around with my costumers computers installing drivers just to be able to access my files on the usb drive. also, these drivers only allow read access. with my vfat partition, i can backup critical data from my costumers computers before doing critical stuff...
