If this is the expected behavior, then that signifies a poor design ideology. To significantly compromise data integrity for the sole sake of speed is entirely unacceptable for anyone attempting to use such a machine for anything other than play. It relegates Ubuntu to the realm of "toy"! Unless t

1) I got what seemed like an excuse for a response, nothing useful such as a work around (such as turning off write caching for NTFS partitions). Surely you can understand that I was very upset for loosing days worth of work! 2) NO, I would not have the same thing on a Windows PC. I would not loos

One thing I forgot. The bug I am pointing out, since I guess I didn't state it properly, is that a move operation deletes the source file before the write completes. This should not occur, and is a bug. -- file move causes data loss if interrupted due to system crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bu

Szabolcs, Thank you very much for the informative post. However, I don't think your point is correct. Why? Because I was moving 7GB of data. About 3GB had completed when the crash occurred (according to the progress bar). All 3 GB of that data was missing after the crash. Surely the disk couldn't h

Ok. I do use UPSes. I have quite a number of them, one on every one of my PCs, some quite large 2 UPS1400s, 2 UPS600s, 1UPS800, many more. I understand. However, I have never, ever had such loss on other systems. In my 20+ years of computing, Never has it happened. So you see that this is extremel
