Re: Good, recent FS comparison?

You'd be best off trying some tests of your own, using files of the size 
and quantity you expect to use on a regular basis.  I would consider 
ext3, xfs, and reiser3/4... and run some tests with them.  We've had 
really good luck using XFS on large raids, I personally had a bad 
experience with reiserfs 3, it lost data on a USB based drive, as if it 
were never even there, even after trying the recovery tools.

I've just setup a nice, 6-disk, USB-2 300 Gig/disk array, and was
prepared to follow my normal pattern of installing ext3 as the
filesystem. However, I saw the interview with Hans Reiser about
ReiserFS4, and am now wondering if reiser has really improved enough
to use it, or if ext3 is still the way to go?

Any thoughts?
