That won't cause corruption, but lots of people have reported strange
permission problems (probably due to the complexity of mapping Windows
file permissions to Unix file permissions).

You're still running the same risk of screwy permission problems if you
use a Linux server, but a Windows server should be fine (assuming that
SMB actually works correctly in all instances).

That's certainly the best choice, at least in terms of reliability and
performance.
