ext4 is a given. What is common in the SMB realm?
ext4 is what you find in the SMB 98% of the time. XFS is what we recommend most of the time.
Why XFS over EXT4 ? Honestly curious.

Reliability, performance. EXT4 has some essentially pointless features that make it popular with the non-production set like the ability to shrink an on the fly partition. Not something you use in prod or a server, not something I've ever used, but in theory, a niche need in a lab or consumer system. But giving up performance or stability for that? Crazy (outside of lab or consumer.)
EXT4 is very good for a desktop, and has a slight edge in the small file transactions common there. XFS has a performance edge with nearly all workloads. Nothing is the best always.

Make a script for what you want to do and use task manager I believe is one way.
