Which File System Is Better For General Contents (media, doc,picture etc)

[azwar]

I've been using ext3 since feisty fawn, as it's the default FS in ubuntu. Then I read an article about JFS on wikipedia that JFS is fast and reliable http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFS_%28file_system%29#JFS_in_Linux . Then I used the JFS on gutsy which i notices some speed when boot time...
Now I heard that the JFS Maintainer http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Debian/2008-01/msg01808.html
not advice JFS for production use. So between reiserfs, ext2, ext3, jfs, & xfs, which is better for general desktop use.

You said it all.Ext3 is default in Ubuntu,so use it.

Yes it's the default ubuntu FS. But is there any way to avoid the fsck screen when I boot my pc. (not on every boot up)

I just read up on this yesterday when someone suggested I use ReiserFS. I haven't given it much thought up until now. I have heard of a new ext4 coming. Then suggestion came on the heels of asking if ubuntu could use ReiserFS V4.

Here is a link that ran some comparisions:

I haven't seen much on ubuntu forums though. I'm using the default. Maybe I'll change later. Right now I just want to make sure ubuntu 8.04 is stable enough for me. I have been using it exclusively for over a month. No Windows! Going "cold turkey", if you will.
