Hello Rich,
one clear recommendation: Go with XFS.

Well, it's not that simple. For SSD's, Ext4 is far better option. XFS is a classic extent based file system which is essentially the same since the glory days of SGI. Here are two good articles:

The best answer we can give is the famous "it depends". This time it depends on the user's hardware.
