Suicidal State Machine
June 22nd, 2010, 12:14 AM
Hi, I'm about to do an install from scratch of Ubuntu 10.4 and was hoping to get some advice on file systems. My plan is to use a solid state drive for the OS and a couple terabyte drives for data (64-bit machine, linux only).
Should I use ext4 for everything (over, say, ext3)? I found a couple of threads here and elsewhere with mixed reviews but thought I'd ask again now that both the ext4 file system and the Ubuntu 10.4 release are a little more mature.
Is the performance upgrade significant? Does anyone still see data issues with large files?
