After much testing there's no doubt that SMB is the best protocol for both Apple macOS and Windows (forget AFP unless you're setting up Time Machine). NFS was too slow, but if it's stable between both Windows and Apple machines I'm open to it. Since SMB is Microsoft Windows baby - my question is when I create a dataset should I choose a share type of Unix or Windows? Because macOS machines are going to be connecting to it as well- I was leaning towards UNIX, but since SMB is Windows baby perhaps Windows is the best share type?
