I have been experimenting with both BTRFS and EXT4 on hacked up,
external RAID5 array made of USB disks. Yes, I know, crazy -- but
they're laying around, so I figured why not use them for long-term storage?
Anyway, in my latest transfer of multiple terabytes of data, to an EXT4
filesystem (it
USB3.x bus
and the USB-based disks I have striped together -- yes, i know it's a
hack :)

I have apfs-fuse running, but it is read-only.
I wanted to avoid the pain of replicating a large disk from USB3 to USB3
by converting the filesystem, which I expected wouldn't be possible. So
now I am just replicating it, which will take days to accomplish.
Thanks.

I have a really large (3+ TB) volume I am copying to a BTRFS volume
(both over USB) which is painfully slow. In fact, it will probably take
days to complete. My goal is to use BTRFS on that larger USB volume
(it's an 18TB drive)
I don't suppose there is a way to convert APFS to BTRFS :)
