I have similar concerns as Florian. |

What's the consensus (opinions) on btrfs? |

I'm building up several new system, with large video file |
| 11 |
archives. I was going to try BTRFS on the entire |
| 12 |
workstation. However, several comments here seem to suggest |
| 13 |
to make a partition for video using BTRFS |
| 14 |
and ext4 for the rest of the system ? |
| 15 |

I intend keep duplicates on another system, via rsync, until such time |
| 17 |
that BTFRS is stable by consensus. |

Bitrot (silent corruption?) is a concern for video that is to be mostly archived |
| 20 |
and only accessed once every few years: similar to the poster's original concern. |

Comments/guidance on ZFS vs BTFRS are welcome. I never used ZFS; googling |
| 23 |
suggests lots of disdain for ZFS ? Maybe someone knows a good article |
| 24 |
or wiki discussion where the various merits of the currently available file |
| 25 |
systems are presented? |
