I'll try and get to the point. My wife passed and I am looking to create a archive of all her files for long term storage. I have cloned to SSD drives but want to also create a backup onto spinning disk. Her files all live on two Macs , one iPhone, one iPad, Google Drive, and USB drives/sticks.

What would you recommend as a file system for long term storage and archive? I am thinking ext4 for the stand alone drives. I plan on organizing and archiving to the cloud, and building a ZFS server. I am mainly a Mac user but I also run a couple Linux boxes.

Thanks for any suggestions.
