Does XFS still have a habit of losing your files when the system crashes (power outage, etc)? I know it was a problem at one time in the not so distance past. That was one thing that really kept me from using it. As for personal file system preferences, for volumes over 5 or 6 TB, ZFS is absolute king (on solaris, anyway... until Oracle really screws it up which they will). BtrFS should be just as good and even superior to ZFS when it finally becomes stable (BtrFS is also by oracle... I'm so conflicted). I don't want to bother upgrading my kernel just to try out btfs though. -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
