Anyone utilizing BTRFS on their data drives. Scrub options working? Stable?

i converted all my 9 disks to btrfs, Haven't tried the scrub option yet. I did see ~2gig less space on every disk after format, so in my conversion from reiser to btrfs i had a couple disks that I had to shuffle files around, other then that I haven't noticed much of a differnce.

I had originally converted one of my servers to almost all BTRFS.  I was having some issues which caused several hard crashes.  after a short time I decided to try a scrub on my data drives to see how they were doing.  Every disk had unrecoverable corrupted files on it except the XFS volumes.  I lost 1-2 files on each drive.  I converted to all XFS, and has been running smooth...  i would never use BTRFS again for a long time... I even converted my cache drive over to XFS since it isn't required for dockers anymore..

Interesting. I'll probably go with XFS on the data array for a new unRAID build.
