From what I understand (very roughly) with ZFS or BTRFS at least it takes one flipped bit in the particular block of memory which has just been successfully checksummed and 'approved' by the filesystem as valid for a write operation. Those are quite a few hoops to jump through so let's not head towards melodrama just yet.
