May be. I had used the brand new kernel 3.1. btrfs may be fine when it works as proposed. It's still under heavy construction. I had to rebuild my 4-TByte archive the second time within 1 year - that's no reliable system. May be the situation for really big bundles of disk gets better when something like raid 5 does work. I'll wait. Viele Gruesse! Helmut
