If you want maximum data security, you might want to go with ext3.  Just the
other day when I was browsing LWN.net, I read about some folks who did some
tests where they'd start writing to a log file, kill the box's power, and
then see how readable the file's data and the filesystem were.  ext3 only
had unrecoverable errors two or three times, but everything else, including
ReiserFS, had tens or hundreds of errors.  ReiserFS may be faster in some
ways, but for me, this made it clear which was the most reliable.
