I've had BitTorrent download for days on an ntfs-3g mounted partition and experienced absolutely no corruption, so as far as I'm concerned, ntfs-3g is bullet-proof.

I format all my drives using NTFS, as it is the best supported format among Linux/Windows. And yeah you could also have a tiny FAT32 linux bootable partition just in case.
