METDeath Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I remember back when XFS and BTRFS were added that BTRFS had a few issues, is this still the case? I ask because I've been trying out a RAID10 setup using 4 1TB sk Hynix SATA SSDS and I've had at least four or five issues that required hard shutdowns (GUI/console wouldn't shutdown), or just general corruption of the pool. Previously when using a SATA or SAS SSD using XFS I had uptime over 60 days without issues many times. When these issues arise, I can't open the logger, or download a diagnostics file.

JorgeB Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Btrfs is fine with stable hardware, better with ECC RAM (but no required), it can be easily corrupted by bad hardware, especially bad RAM, in some cases devices dropping can also cause issues, and having a UPS is always good to avoid unclean shutdowns, some pool monitoring info here.
