I’m running EndeavourOS and Windows 11. Each OS is on a separate disk, but I have a data disk that is currently NTFS that mount in both OSes. NTFS causes problems for some things in Linux, and I’m worried it’ll bork the drive for windows eventually, so I’m keen to find an alternative. I’ve read about the WinBTRFS driver so wondering if that is a better way to go?

I don’t want to run a server with a share to access this data because it is way to slow for my needs.

    Hi @Limonene@lemmy.world! It’s so hard to grasp as a casual user the actual benefits from file systems. I use ext4 on all my devices.

    Could you point me to the required feature a file system needs to have in order to recover files after removing it with rm -rf?

    I heard there are tools for my current file system which could help me out; But is there some file system with a rm-cache (until the disk is powered off or the cache is full).

    Unix Permission is a must.

    Would appreciate some general hints (I do replicate my personal important files).
