When was the last time you did an offline block level optimisation of your drives /g/?

Tell me you do this.
Tell me you keep your files contiguous across the disk?

NTFS is objectively garbage. NTFS relies on an MFT (Along with a copy of it) to store ALL your file metadata for the entire disk, so if these structures get corrupted then your data is top tier fucked. There are more reasons why NTFS is crap, but if that alone isn't enough to deter you from using NTFS, then you really are a good goy.

>>52430810
So what, you telling me you don't have multiple backups of your data?
>>
>>52430844
I make daily copies of my ZFS pool (which also stores the weekly hard drive images of my personal computers) in multiple locations. The average normie Winfag won't.
