xfs - Journaling filesystem

Sub-second filesystem recovery after crashes or power failures (never wait for long fscks again). 64-bit scalability: millions of terabytes, millions of files, and a million files per directory (no more 2 GB limits). High reliability and performance from journaling and other advanced algorithms.
