Bug Hunting in Btrfs
Can this be used? I knew ReactOS would use it natively.

And so it begins. Im debating on weather to go BTRFS or NTFS.
I loose out on BTRFS snapshotting and subvolumes then. And if you look at winbtrefs it’s more than a hobbiest project. It has quite active development progress constantly https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs

Software for syncing files between NTFS and Btrfs partitions.
I've installed the WinBtrfs driver on Windows, which supports read/write support for Btrfs partitions.

Steam Deck dualboot. How to share storage?
Install WinBTRFS so Windows can read the file BTRFS file system.
- Is there ways to backup only modified files to a local drive?

Best SSD file format to use between fedora and windows
I don’t know if that tool allows to write but this GitHub page https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs seems mature enough. I am still unsure to trust it because I could bork my SSD and files
- How will a micro sd card work on a dual booted steam deck?

Uh oh. Used WinBtrfs to run a balance check on the partition with the Linux OS on it and now the drive is locked and it's booting into emergency mode
https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs scroll down to mappings and that *should help with sharing things between both OSes.

WinBtrfs – an open-source btrfs driver for Windows
Heads up, installing both WinBTRFS and OpenZFS on Windows may have problems:
"Win OpenZFS driver and WinBtrfs driver dont play well with each other"

OpenZFS 2.2: Block Cloning, Linux Containers, BLAKE3
I tried it a few months ago and ReFS ate my data. No indication of why in event logs or SMART data. It had IsPowerProtected set because I have a UPS and I had a unclean restart, I would expect it to lose data, but not to corrupt the filesystem metadata. I had a backup of the data but wanted some recent changes. Refsutil (the official Microsoft tool) didn't help because it has not been updated for the newest ReFS version. I couldn't read most files because I had integrity enable and files failed the check. Hetman's Data Recovery was able to recover most of the data. In later testing I found out that IsPowerProtected is just very unsafe. I have since put some time into testing and sometimes fixing https://github.com/openzfsonwindows/openzfs , it is not ready for use yet, but it is making great progress.

Is there a mount backup vdev Windows tutorial
Windows lacks support in the same sense that Linux lacks support; there are external projects implementing it for both, though I believe the Windows port is less polished. (Some people are running it in production, though...)

Windows on Btrfs
This is really cool and speaks to the modularity of the Windows file system stack. I love projects that customize Windows (working against its closed-source nature).
There’s an OpenZFA port to Windows[0]. I wonder if my hopes of having ZFS on Windows (including the boot drive, because I would love to be able to snapshot and rollback) would actually be possible.

External Harddrive from NAS to Windows?
*cough* it can, but... no idea how well it works but it seems a bit hacky.

External Harddrive from Truenas to Windows?
If you have not used it, maybe the native ZFS port for windows could be an easier solution.

Problem with a NVMe device: it drops off the bus on intense IO, so I can't scrub or zfs send
Theoretically ZFS is ported to windows, but I heard that it is not really stable yet.
