ZFS goes far beyond traditional file systems in terms of performance and features.
Heres what were most interested in:
- Its __snapshot management__ features, allowing you to quickly roll back in case of issues.
- Its support for disk groupings and [__RAID-like structures__](/global/RAID) (Z-Mirror, RAIDZ1, RAIDZ2, RAIDZ3).
- Its support for disk groupings and [__RAID-like structures__](/general/raid) (Z-Mirror, RAIDZ1, RAIDZ2, RAIDZ3).
- Its __automatic recovery of corrupted data__ (through scrubbing).
- Its performance, enhanced by RAM caching (ZFS ARC).
- Its robust error notifications and monitoring.

- **snapshot**: a frozen-in-time version of another dataset. Snapshots can be created manually or through backup tools. They can be mounted to browse data as it was at the snapshot time.
## Why ZFS over others?

### Data Integrity
ZFS continuously checks that your stored data hasn't become corrupted. Every block of data is associated with a checksum, allowing ZFS to detect even the smallest alteration. If corruption is found and a healthy copy exists elsewhere, ZFS can repair the data automatically.
### Built-in RAID
ZFS includes its own volume management system (vdevs). You can build a zpool using multiple disks—similar to traditional [RAID](/global/RAID) setups—but with more flexibility. For example:

- **RAIDZ1** → equivalent to RAID 5 (tolerates 1 disk failure)
