XFS and ZFS are completely different things. XFS is a file system originating with SGI in 1993. It's been in use on Linux for years. Largely considered stable. ZFS is a file system originating with Sun in 2005. I don't know anyone who uses it. Largely considered experimental/unfinished outside of Solaris.
