I use XFS on Centos-4 here with 9500-S and 9550-SX. The load is quite heavy (~30 climate modelling people) and the volume not tiny (~40 TiB). This system works fine and I have no problems sleeping at night. But then again, if you want data security you'll have to run backups anyway. Any filesystem can die.
Oh, yea, backups! :)
Heck, 30 users and 40 tibibytes of data is a pretty good stress test. How long have you been running XFS in this setup?
And how do you backup that much data?
