Or have you been using ZFS on the same hardware?

Btw raid5/6 is still broken on btrfs which makes it a hard sell for any system with more than 2 disks. cf. raidz on ZFS
I posted this link here already:

f2fs (at least in its state a couple of years ago) is/was a prime example of how a filesystem can get into a barely working state with massive amounts of data and metadata corruption, and not even notice it.
God I love this site. In case of a minor disagreement with someone don't even bother to think, just press "downvote".
Btrfs RAID1 works perfectly, and RAID1c3/RAID1c4 provides additional redundancy. In place of RAID5, use RAID10 instead.
If you want more IOPS, add more raidz2 (raid6) stripes to the pool. In practice, spinning rust is the new tape. Trying to do random access under 1MB is just silly
I don't stress over rebuilds. 2 more disks failing during a rebuild is incredibly unlikely compared to everything else that might force me to restore a backup (software bugs, data center flooding, etc).
