That is a weak excuse to rely on data integrity in the hardware. They most likely had that feature and removed it so they wouldn't be liable for a class action lawsuit when it turns out the NAND ages out due to bug in the retention algorithm. NTFS is what, 35 years old at this point? Odd comparison.
- GeekyBear 1y agoThe point is that NTFS makes zero effort to maintain file integrity at any level. Handling file integrity at the hardware level is a big step up.
- sitkack 1y agoNTFS is an ancient but well designed file system, a more apt comparison would be ZFS or BTRFS both of which checksum metadata and data.
