All,
My recording drive (small partition for LiveTV, large partition for
ATSC recordings) decided to die (2 TB Western Digital Green).
S.M.A.R.T. errors galore, long pauses and corruption in recordings,
etc. It was using XFS for the filesystem based on a recommendation in
the mythtv wiki from a long time back.
Is XFS still the filesystem of choice or at this point is there a
better option? Btrfs? EXT4?
I've gone with a 3TB Western Digital Purple drive. Not much more than
the Green but with a longer warranty.
Suggestions? Thanks,
Neil
