    I have installed UNR 9.04 and noticed at the boot that UNR 9.04 uses ext3 by default. I wonder if it wouldn't be better to use the ext2 file system instead. Is my AA1 110 gonna be slower because of the ext2 file system? What do you think?

    ext3 is journaled (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journaling_file_system) so the HD/SSD is more often accessed that with ext2.
    Some mentioned that using ext3 would reduce SSD life but others say that by the time the SSD dies you would probably have switch to another machine.

    Grtz,
