Among BSDs, UFS / FFS should work. To get rid of the many
limitations in the MS-DOS file system, tar is really the
best solution. (I know this from interoperability works
with many different UNIXes, such as BSDs, Solaris, IRIX
and Mac OS X - even Linux can handle it without problems.)
And it is not limited to a subset of media.

I can only say: Avoid MICROS~1 stuff if possible. Not using
it makes you happy afterwards. :-)
