Filesystem NTFS vs. ext4; does it make a difference for solving?
 
Hi,
i simulate with OpenFOAM with the following workflow:
Windows: Ansys CFD PrepPost (Windows) for Meshing -> Export Fluent .msh (ASCII) -> convert *.msh with Dos2Unix to Unix Format-> copy to Ubuntu

Ubuntu: solve and postprocess with Ubuntu (ext4 Fileformat).


Now the Meshes got bigger. I run out of space so the admin in our company gave us a NAS with windows NTFS SSD disks. Does the NTFS Fileformat make a difference?
I will use the NAS SSD Disks as a mounted network drive in Ubuntu for OpenFOAM.
