Comment ZFS? (Score 3, Informative) 300
I will admit that I have not tried it on Linux, but zfs is the best of the next gen filesystems. It does cryptographically assured reads and writes (remember that transitory undetected disk malfunctions occur at a rate of ~1/TB of data), it can snapshot changes, it fricken slices bread. If it had a gender, I would probably marry it (well, I guess I can date it for a while and see how things work out). http://zfs-fuse.net/
