I have been having some electrical issues,mostly power going out suddenly for a few months,and although ups solve the thing mostly.
But still i am worried about filesystem corruption,and data lost.
It is xfs worse than ext3 or less reliable when the computer goes off,or crashes or other filesystem issues?
Having a ups and a good backup strategy (i have a 1,5 tb disk that i want to use to backup all the critical data) is enough ,and i shouldn't be worried ?
I have been reading that xfs zero out data (although i think this has been solved) when the power goes off ,and things like that XFS is not safe against data corruption.
Enabling write barriers and tweaking xfs correctly, and having a ups and backups , could be xfs as reliable as ext3, or at least acceptable enough?
If i use xfs for / and /home to have more performance (with large files mostly), I will risk more my data,than using xfs?
