The kernel is very reliable and will certainly not destroy your data, or even |
| 25 |
require a chkdsk from windows. It does however support writing less often. |
| 26 |
For both modes, writing is enabled, but does not always succeed. Whether or |
| 27 |
not it succeeds is dependent on the structure of the directory the file is to |
| 28 |
be written into. |
