Good day, I have few questions, why are soft updates not on by default, and does they help consistency in case of failure, are they recom‐ mended to be turned on only in specific case ? Except my mis‐ take, they help keeping drive consistent, avoid the need for fsck for most hard failure cases, and only risk to have unused spare sectores which can be later recovered.
Would not they help with the file system in general or some draw back with their use ? Regards, J.F.
