	May I ask, "Why?"  I am running XFS on both my video server and its
backup.  Generally I have been very pleased.  The only issue I have had was
trying to fsck the arrays.  I only have 10G of swap space, and XFS requires
much more than that to successfully check file systems in excess of 6T.  It
wasn't a really big deal, however.  I just plugged in a 750G drive, shut
down the default swap, and turned it up on the large drive.  Once done, I
switched the swap back to the boot drive.
