Can anyone give me a link to a text on ZFS that tells me why I might want to use that instead of FFS? I don't want to start a discussion which is better, just a comparison, as I assume that the two are not designed to do the same things. And if possible one that is understandable to people who don't hack FS-code. :-) Regards, Chris
