But why? I’m thinking for data recovery. I’m hoping people wouldn’t try to set up a ZFS fileserver within windows.



I would love to have an advanced file system that works on portable drives across multiple OSes.

ZFS is not designed for this use case, but at least it is something. Having compression, encryption, integrity checking, and data duplication on a potentially flaky external drive would be killer features.


That would be awesome. I’d love to have c or root on zfs as well. That could make clients really easy to back up.
