I've been burned by btrfs before. Never again. It's not a good file system, especially for multi disk systems.

Idk about all that, it's been fine for me, just a little misconfiguration here. The compression just saved me a bunch of storage space, so I'm kinda in btrfs' corner right now lol

It was fine for me too, right up to the point that it really wasn't.

I've had two production systems fail because btrfs didn't balance metadata and file space like it says it will. It has some fancy features, but do you need them?
