Well if Windows is not involved that is no issue. However with Windows in mind 
you have to notice that neither the format for mobile storage devices that can 
r/w out of the box on both Windows and UNIX systems which generally is FAT32, 
nor the Windows network share protocol which generally is SMB/CIFS supported 
that. That is, despite NTFS does both symbolic and hard links, I cannot easily 
transfer it from a UNIX system (I generally develop on OS X) to a Windows 
system.
