Microsoft Announces ReFS, a New Filesystem For Windows 8

Posted by timothy on from the comes-with-striped-shirt dept.

bonch writes "Microsoft has shared details about its new filesystem called ReFS, which stands for Resilient File System. Codenamed 'Protogon,' ReFS will first appear as the storage system for Windows Server and later be offered to Windows clients. Microsoft plans to deprecate lesser-used NTFS features while maintaining 'a high degree of compatibility' for most uses. NTFS has been criticized in the past for its inelegant architecture."

    So, you are a troll, posing as a MS shill (no way they could be as incompetent to use someone like you) to make MS look bad?

    Trust me, they don't need the help.
