The Z File System, or ZFS, is an innovative file system that's a lot better than any other file system on the market. It is incredibly reliable and provides the very best performance for the hosting platforms that employ it. What makes it different is that it compares the so-called checksum of all files on the drives that comprise a RAID array in real time and in case a file is broken, it's repaired instantly. Essentially, the exact same site files are located on two or more hard disks and if there is a problem with a file on one hard disk, a good copy is employed from the other drive so as to restore that file. In contrast, none of the other commonly used file systems uses checksums. ZFS is also much faster and its efficiency is not influenced by the amount of files stored on the web servers. The bigger speeds also allow backups to be created faster and more frequently without affecting the performance of the system.
