Since both drives are SSDs thereās nothing really stopping you from using BTRFS. You are correct that the features for BTRFS are better for the long term health of your SSDs and if you feel comfortable with it then you should 100% use it. That being said with todays SSDs the life span extending features of BTRFS, F2FS, etc are going to be minimal at best. So donāt stress too much over running it or not. Just use whatever youāre most comfortable with.
Iām assuming you donāt want to tinker with things? Iām also assuming you do not have experience with things like ZFS. Soā¦.
Unless youāre running multiple drives (or special options) zfs & btrfs arenāt going to give you much. For instance btrfs (unless itās set to DUP) isnāt going to protect from bitrot or other data corruption. Same goes for ZFS. It will throw an error when something doesnāt match the checksum though.
Your best option is to either use ext4 or xfs for your 4tb storage. If youāre working with a lot of large files xfs has some advantages but overall youāre not going to notice that much of a difference in your uses.
For your ssd, btrfs has the advantage over ext4 and xfs. Although so does f2fs. In practical uses for what youāre describing itās not going to make that much of a difference.
Unless you have a specific reason to use something other than ext4 then just stick with that. Itās simple and just works. Make sure youāre keeping backups eg restic, borg, rsync, duplicity, etc etc. and follow the 3,2,1 rule where possible and youāll be fine.
If it were me setting up that system Iād mirror the drives and use btrfs. Which is pretty much what I did on my PC. But that double the costs of storage.
The only place (at home) I use ZFS is on my NAS. I have Rocky8 setup and all it does is handle storage. I use mirrored pairs on my important data and Z1 on everything else. But thatās a topic for another post
If you REALLY want some of the features of zfs or btrfs eg snapshots, Iād lean on your backup software for that but if you can use LVM to take snapshots in a similar fashion. See STRAIS for another example too. However thatās beyond the scope of this post.
Hey OP, if youāre feeling attacked maybe try to engage some critical thinking skills and the scientific method. Thereās decades of established research and evidence that you can work on reproducing and proving it wrong. Thatās the beauty of open information and the scientific method. Iām sure thereās an amazing opportunity for anyone who is able to show that decades of peer reviewed research is wrong.
Whomever wrote that is pandering to the type of person that only reads headlines and does no critical thinking. Youāre 100% correct and itās dangerous to promote that kind of easily debunked misinformation. This has no place on here and should be downvoted into oblivion.
That MF KNOWSEXACTLY what he is doing and is trying to get free media time while pushing out dangerous claims. He also knows hes loosing and when he looses he is completely done for.
4K and on my P2000 or using Intel QSV isnāt a great experience. I can totally see it not being a good experience on a P4000 too.
That being said with HDR work 1080 it works with both QSV and the P2000. So it should work like a champ on the P4000. I donāt really have any HDR displays so I donāt really grab that many things in HDR so YMMV.
The best advice I can offer is if the content is transcoded into a mp4 container with the ATOM upfront ( aka fast start / web) and youāre not using subtitles it will work okay-ish as long as you do not pause it. Using the mkv container is just asking for sadness in my experience with it. Though at this point if I need to do that I just transcode into AV1, burn the subs into it, and pass through the audio.
That is one way to view it. However due to everyone, in including blue collar workers, having their lively hoods threatened by AI we need to ask the question if were okay, as a society, for there to be more jobs eliminated than created. Are we okay with the current ways and (some would say the illusion of) the free market controlling everything? Are we okay with letting people suffer needlessly? Would you be okay with looking into the eyes of someone you know and saying "too bad that's the free market baby!" Because it's starting with the arts but it's not stopping there. It's only a matter of time before it will not need many warm bodies to do things. The knowledge works are next on the list and it won't be long after that where manual labors will be impacted. This is all WAY before we even hit AGI.
I'm not saying that AI taking jobs is a bad thing. I think it is an amazing thing but we need to start embracing it as an opportunity for things to be more Star Trek and less dystopian hellscape. That means changing this mindset that a lot of us have and start asking ourselves how do we want the world to look in 100 or even 500 years from now.
He always looks and sounds like some dystopian sci-fi villain. Seems like he was the kind of kid that roots for Captain Hook and Shredder too. If someone would have given him more hugs and let him get a Lisa Frank spiral notebook at the book fair as a child I bet he would have turned out better.
I read that as geriatric squirrels šæļø and it still made perfect senseā¦
