It's mathematically not possible, not statistically. If Windows were safe Microsoft wouldn't have documented the same data loss problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940508 They talk about not unmounted devices which is the same as suddenly removing them or power outage.
Moreover the severity of the data loss also depends how the file system is mounted, sync or not. The former has poor performance but minimizes data loss. The later has much better performance but much more things can get lost if the hardware or power fails. Windows typically uses the former, meanwhile Ubuntu the later because system crashes are not very common use case scenarios on Linux systems. -- file move causes data loss if interrupted due to system crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303610 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
