From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

you can't get there from here.
you can convert to btrfs, but no matter what anyone says, there lie dragons.
if you end up doing big bulk reads and writes to and from your disks, keep them cool. if that means limiting bitrates with the rsync command or just plugging them up to a 802.11g laptop and copying from there to your target then that's fine. if it means making a funnel to direct a box fan's worth of cfm onto your drives then that's fine.
