From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I would have loved to take that performance before I converted my data drives to ext4, however it's just inherently not stable.

Sometimes If you have a power loss you have to run chkdsk on Windows to get out of ro mode, no?

There's no need to run chkdsk from Windows, you can run ntfsfix directly from Linux:

sudo ntfsfix /dev/path --clear-dirty
