Hello, I am trying to decide on which file systems to use for a Debian install on a personal laptop. It's a Thinkpad T61 with one 160 GB HD.
Hello Jimmy, I have found:Xfs is best for large file sizes, if that's what you are dealing with - graphics, and the ilk;
Reiserfs is best for smaller file sizes;Ext3 is best if you are dealing with a mixture of both and has the added security factor of defaulting to Ext2 if it fails. Although I have never had reason to find out.
