It wouldn’t be for backing up, just for the storage to last longer if one drive fails.
Thank you, that makes sense.
Yeah I’ll always do backups. When I have the money I probably will buy another drive and try to do RAID1 on the two, just to be sure. But I do want them to last as much as possible.
How do you typically recover things on zfs vs btrfs? Also, is the out-of-tree kernel modules thing something you have to deal with or take into account?
Hey, thanks for the help. Can you elaborate on what kind of issues BTRFS gave you? What caused them, too?
I don’t mind needing to be technical or having to read to do things right. I probably wont really do much fancy things, I just don’t want the filesystems dying on me out of nowhere. If they’re stable enough for that, that’s enough for me. Thanks for the help
Thanks for the help. Both of my drives are SSDs, the boot drive is M2 and the storage is SATA. I’ve heard filesystems that support compression would be better for their health and lifespan as they’d have to write less. But yes, no matter what, I will keep constant backups. Snapshots would be appreciated, but since I’ll run Debian I don’t think they’d be that necessary, if to have them there’s a lot of problems to deal with in exchange.
I don’t plan on installing Windows at all. The only thing I’d do in my boot drive is have a separate home partition, I won’t really do anything else though. Did the corruption you experience happened just on its own? Or was it something you did?
How stable is Testing for daily use by the way?
