Lots of protection for your data? Let's see, super aggressive caching and no data journaling only metadata journaling, what on earth are you blabbering about? Use XFS with anything that has no BBU cache support or barrier support and recent files are toast when there is a crash or sudden power failure. Nah, XFS has historically been the fastest at writing and also the most dangerous filesystem available on Linux.
