Ntfs is a notoriously bad file system. If he has the physical space (which he has), better to use a better file system. Ext4 might be "old" but it's a much better FS. Backup space is overblown imho
I had a lot of problems with proton and NTFS drives recently (slowness and games that would not launch)
Yes, it's recommended against using proton with NTFS. It's known to cause issues.
