Re: APFS and BTRFS

[Forrest Aldrich <forrie@gmail.com>]

I'm taking data from the 18TB drive and placing it onto the USB-drive 
array I built (slower) -- it's on a USB 3.0 bus, off a raspberry pi, so 
very limited in terms of what I can do for that. It's a hackup job I'm 
building for longer term storage.  The real bottleneck is the USB3.x bus 
and the USB-based disks I have striped together -- yes, i know it's a 
hack :)
