xfs for media/pictures

ntfs for gaming windows, would probably use something else if i had more options.

I do. It's reliable enough and fast.

HFS+, which is old and is shit in its own right, but at least it isn't NTFS which has probably the greatest number of irritating quirks of all the current popular boot drive filesystems.

Been meaning to set up a FreeNAS box for bulk data storage and important file backups for a while now but just haven't gotten around to it. I wish more cheap tiny FreeNAS-compatible motherboards supported ECC.

Me too. BTRFS has been working great for me. I love the deduplication feature as I use a lot of VMs.

NTFS and ReFS.

I guess the drive attached to my router is ext3.
>>
>>54551225
Basically what it boils down to is that it saves tremendous amounts of storage when you have a lot of similar blocks of data. In my case, I run about 8-10 VM's in a lab environment, but it only uses up the space of 2 of those VMs because the majority of the data on each VM is the same (the operating system files).
>>
>>54549786
Ntfs
>>
>>54549786
EXT4 however when I first made my file server I went with XFS on the storage drives because I didn't know how to make root not reserve 5% of a 2TB drive with EXT4
>>
>>54551162
Does btrfs have high ram requirements like ZFS?
>>
>>54552757
I don't think its anything exceptional. My machine idles at around 700MB of memory usage. I've never used ZFS so I can't compared. I run Linux and have heard that ZFS is buggy as hell on Linux and that it probably always will be because of a legal issue with licensing.

Btrfs.
Shit is great. Snapshots, filesystem compression, deduplication, filesystem RAID (no mdadm shit) and all that.
>>
>>54552860
It takes a significant amount of autism to run a filesystem that doesn't ship with your distribution.

Ubuntu only just started doing so, and proper to that, the entire user based consisted of said autists.
>>
ZFS.
>>
>>54554611
What do you mean? When I install my OS I have to create a file system anyways, it is literally no more work to type mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda1 compared to mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1.

Btrfs ("Better FS")

Is TagFS a real filesystem?
Does anyone use it?

NTFS on Windows
Btrfs on systemd/Linux

I have heard ext4 is the best file system, others like reiser are good for lots of small files but are slower the larger the files get.

Ceph.

Get out of this thread mouthbreathers.
>>
>>54551225
It's passive / on-demand dedup. You have to do it by, say, running a cronjob to search for and deduplicate blocks inside a directory.

>>54552757
No, because it's not in-band dedup (yet). ZFS dedup's high memory requirements (~16 GiB) come from the fact that it basically has to contain a big lookup tree mapping block contents to their location on the filesystem.

But you could also turn off in-band deduplication in zfs and get pretty much the same result as with btrfs.

In general, there are only few reasons to prefer btrfs over zfs, and “dynamic raid” is one of them. (And is also why I use it personally)

What distribution doesn't ship with ZFS? It must be exceptionally shitty.
>>
>>54554541
According to the benchmarks reiser has never been as good as ext4, ext4 whoops it in almost all the tests.

>>
>>54555225
There's no "best" filesystem, there's only one that's best for your particular use-case.
>>
You know, it never occurred to me until now that ZFS becoming the the new universally supported filesystem (at least for *nix).
It works on all kinds of linux distros, bsd, illumos, even os x.
Every OS except windows works with zfs.
>>
>>54557216
Only one? Damn, it's hard to narrow it down, there are so many benefits..
>>
>>54557216
- compression support
- deduplication support
- snapshot support
- subvolumes
- integrated RAID and JBOD, which is extremely flexible (running out of space on one disk? add another disk to that volume, while it's online/mounted, and the new space is immediately available to use)
the only reason to consider ext4 over btrfs is that ext4 is more mature
>>
Hfs+
>>
>>54559078
Also reflinking, file checksumming (prevents bit rot), dynamic RAID (freely stripe and duplicate blocks across available drives), quota support, transmitting subvolumes across the network, union / seed mounting, etc.
