[dba-Tech] The ZFS FS

ZFS may be the ultimate file system for any OS. 

It features are quite incredible. ZFS is a combined file system and logical
volume manager designed by Sun Microsystems. The features of ZFS include
protection against data corruption, support for high storage capacities,
integration of the concepts of filesystem and volume management, snapshots
and copy-on-write clones, continuous integrity checking and automatic
repair, RAID-Z and native NFSv4 ACLs. ZFS is implemented as open-source
software.

If you are worry about the integrity of the file system, it is supposed to
be the most stable FS in the world. If you are concerned that it can not
access sufficient storage don't worry. A ZFS file system can store up to 256
quadrillion zettabytes (ZB), where a 1 zettabyte = 1,073,741,824 terabytes
...much larger than most of our MS Access MDBs.

It can install on a number of Distros but unfortunately, it is not supported
by Windows Servers...yet.
