- the8472 5y agoThe checksumming helps to spot faulty hardware, that's a step above most other filesystems and often smart info too.
- akvadrako 5y agoChecksums don't help against bugs. You are much less likely to lose your whole disk with ext4 or ZFS than BTRFS.
- edgyquant 5y agoI see this a lot but have never had problems with BTRFS and I’ve used it both on my larger disks (2+tb) and my root (250gb ssd) across multiple computers for the last four years.
