Shriphani ‘PSP’ Palakodety

I found this article on Storagemojo. Seemingly, Apple has come up with a filesystem converter. A remarkable breakthrough! Just imagine the ease with which I could experiment, I have to keep aside an entire drive while trying out new things and this is a PITA. Instead this patent filed on the 1st of August is going to eliminate most of my problems (err this utility will be available on Linux right ?). I respect the fact that Apple is coming up with something like this and guess what, Apple is moving to ZFS ? I am of the opinion that Apple will have to mount its boot partition on something else as Sun itself has been unable to boot OpenSolaris off a ZFS partition. Still, by October, ZFS is going to be rid of that problem.
Lots of cool stuff happening in the storage domain.
