EXT3 is fine as that's what you know and are comfortable with. With your workload you'll see no performance difference amongst the 3-4 mainstream Linux filesystems. The default data=ordered mount mode of EXT3 should be fine. Use data=journal if you want maximum filesystem integrity. With the speed of that Intel SSD you likely won't notice any slow down--maybe a small difference going into hibernation. > Didn't mess with anything else.
