I’m having trouble understanding all the benefits of BTRFS and how they’ll apply to me.
Copy on Write and auto-compression seem like they will free up a bit of space.
What other practical benefits will I see from using BTRFS? Are there any noticeable performance benefits?
I use my computer to dual-boot. I don’t need snapshots because I have a custom script for a fresh install. I use my PC for gaming and work. I’ve got an NVMe, two SSD’s and one HDD.
Thanks in advance!
I was the same way as a teenager. I would reformat and swap out hard drives for more space, all the good stuff. I mined BTC for a few months, but gave up because it was worthless and I couldn’t play my video games.
Well, after reformatting and swapping drives so much I now have a stack of drives I’ve combed over dozens of times with a fine-toothed comb. My bitcoin wallet was in one of them, with millions of dollars worth of coins sitting in it never to be seen again.
Has nothing to do with the topic at hand, but your post reminded me of that (as do many other things), so I thought I’d share.
Damn bro, start learning about data recovery. I would be investing all my time into it.
