Meanwhile, since you appear to be designing a mass-market product, it's
worth mentioning that btrfs is considered, certainly by its devs and
users on this list, to be "still stabilizing, not fully stable and
mature." [...] That doesn't sound like a particularly good choice for a
mass-market NAS
product to me. Of course there's rockstor and others out there already
shipping such products, but they're risking their reputation and the
safety of their customer's data in the process, altho there's certainly a
few customers out there with the time, desire and technical know-how to
ensure the recommended backups and following current kernel and list, and
that's exactly the sort of people you'll find already here. But that's
not sufficiently mass-market to appeal to most vendors.
You may want to look here: https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/Btrfs
. Somebody forgot to tell Synology, which already supports btrfs in all
hardware-capable devices. I think Rubicon has been crossed in
'mass-market NAS[es]', for good or not.
