[question] NTFS vs ReFS .. what will i lose ??

[asamirid]

greetings ..

from my understanding and from scrabbing the forum here for while, i know that "everything" deeply relay on NTFS file system.

now iam consider converting one of my drive from NTFS to ReFS ..

what will i lose if i made the move to ReFS, features and performance wize ??

sorry if it's a noob question but i appreciate any help regarding that ..

[void]

For the initial indexing:

NTFS has a master file table which will make initial index very fast.
ReFS doesn't have a master file table, so the initial index can take several minutes.

The initial index is normally only done once.



For monitoring changes to the volumes:

Everything uses the USN Journal for both NTFS and ReFS volumes.
You will see the same performance for both volume types.



Everything supports both NTFS and ReFS volumes.
