Then I could publish a paper and be "Internet famous. Yes, this is true. However, other file systems do not offer *any* hint of telling you when your data is corrupt on the platter like ZFS will. So if you know you don't have ECC protection, then you should not expect your data to be protected end to end. If you have ECC and a "regular" file system, the same is true. You just never know. _______________________________________________ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
