ZFS Shows Up in New Leopard Build

Posted by Hemos on

Udo Schmitz writes "As a follow-up to rumours from May this year, World of Apple has a screenshot showing Sun's Zettabyte File System in "the most recent Build of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard". Though I still wonder: If it is not meant to replace HFS+, could there be any other reasons to support ZFS?"

    A RAID array won't survive someone dding 40 megs or so to a partition, and reiserfs can hardly be called reliable, seeing as sometimes it just decides to hose the entire partition for no apparent reason. But glad to see you're using them for that, one more retarded uninformed clueless ignorant asshat to deal with.

    NFS didn't "... come out of Redmond ..." Microsoft _bought_ it from another company. so nothing worthwhile has actually " come out of Redmond " in the sense you use.
