ZFS, which signifies Z File System, is a progressive file system which provides top performance for web sites and online programs. One of its main advantages is the real-time checksum comparison - each and every file has a checksum, or a digital fingerprint, and ZFS compares the checksums of all the files between the different hard disks operating together in a RAID. If any file is damaged for some reason on one of the drives, it is repaired from another travel with the correct checksum. As a result, the integrity of any file located on a hosting server is ensured all of the time. ZFS also functions faster than other file systems, which allows backups to be generated considerably quicker and without slowing down the general performance of the whole web server. Furthermore, ZFS does not have a set limit for the total number of files which may be stored on a web server while all other file systems have some restriction which might cause problems at some point, especially for script programs which have a large number of files.
