Interesting - I'm running an xfs system that has been through several |
| 10 |
power failures without problems - could have more to do with the |
| 11 |
specifics of ones harddrives than the type of file system (e.g. ATA/IDE |
| 12 |
write caching being the most common reason for power loss corruption, |
| 13 |
and some types seem more susceptible than others). |
