Which fs do you prefer? Why? What is its main purpose? (ie, server, occasional use in either desktop or laptop, RAID, SSD, etc)
Sometime soon I will be forced to take the time to upgrade my system here so your input would be appreciated. By upgrade I mean to replace HDD and OS, i.e. a fresh install of something. The what is still up in the air.
Featurewise, btrfs. Looking at reliability, ext4, without a doubt. I'm using ext4 for system, and XFS for data partitions, like /home. And, reiserfs for some specific partitions, like those that handle millions of small files (maildir, nntp, also compilations). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
