Go with NTFS. There are registry entries to relieve some of the filesystem overhead (see below). Raw provides 5-10% improvement, but is hardly worth the effort. FAT is old technology with old characteristics.

REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem] "NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate"=dword:00000001

REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem] "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation"=dword:00000001
