A case of YMMV I'm afraid

I will not touch ext2/3 again except for /boot (because its simple and
does not seem to have problems - as long as you leave it unmounted that
is - live and learn!) as it is the only file system I regularly lost
files on (a laptop that would crash every couple of weeks due to
hardware/suspend to ram etc issues), and whole filesystems (40G files +
OS at christmas for instance.  reiserfs isnt perfect, some years back I
lost a few minor files (this is not counting hardware failure where I
have experience that reiserfs handles failing/failed disks far better
than ext2/3 - important when you want to get the data off!

Others seem to have good things to say about ext 2/3 though, so its a
case of try it and see how it works for you.
