Happy 30th Birthday “New Technology” File System! Thanks for 30 years of demonstrating Linux superiority with a gap that widens with every new kernel release 👍

    I think a better question would be: “what’s not wrong with NTFS?”

        I’ll try. Short: It’s not as powerful as ZFS.

        Examples:

        • no low cost snapshots (don’t harm performance)
        • no checksums, no self-healing
        • 256 TB limit
        • magical reserved $ and OneDrive filenames
        • magical 8.3 mapping
        • broken standard API calls (CreateFileW instead of fopen)
        • falsem

          Another reason ZFS is better is it gives you something to do with all your spare RAM.
