Happy 30th Birthday “New Technology” File System! Thanks for 30 years of demonstrating Linux superiority with a gap that widens with every new kernel release 👍

      ReFS still is not supported for use as a boot (C:) drive, but it’s used extensively in enterprise environments for VHD storage and as a backup target.

      Snapshotting and merging is much faster because of “Fast Cloning.” It also has something called “integrity streams” which can be used to tell if data has been corrupted.

      I don’t understand this all at a deep level, but it seems promising.
