In almost ten years of use, I've never lost any data due to any EXT2/3
problems. I have been able to recover data from two hard drives that
crashed. One just last week that crashed badly enough that I couldn't
do anything with it until I turned it upside down. I did lose one file
from the home directory, one that is easily recoverable from the Wed.
I've lost much more data at work due to drive failure on Windows
machines that the admins could not recover (NTFS).
