El Duke posted:pretty sure that was his exact point. The point is that cloud storage will happily take files that your local filesystem's already corrupted. Generally, a local FS will always be a necessary pit-stop for your bits, so why not make it less sucky. They took DTrace for free, they could have done the exact same thing for ZFS.

The FS on the NAS doesn't matter so much as the protocol you use to access the files (SMB in the case of NTFS).

Decius posted:Does this mean if I use Samba it doesn't matter if I, for example, use ext4 as file system, even if Windows and Mac OS aren't able to fully access it, since Samba does the work for them? Or should I still use a file system all three systems can read/write (FAT is out because of the file size limit in any case and it seems all have issues, but HFS+, NTFS, exFAT the least of all).

Kilometers Davis posted:As bored as I am with the somewhat stale color palette and general look of the current Apple lineup, these reasons are why I don't jump to Google for tablets and MS for a desktop OS. The quality and consistency is ridiculous. I always have to laugh when I hear people say Apple stuff is horribly overpriced and hear how they gently caress over their customers. Apple treats us with respect and knows we want really, really good quality all around. I can't remember the last time I really felt like I was dicked around by the company or their products. Even my ridiculously old MBP would run fine if it had a working battery.
