One (contrived) example would be to have a drive that doesn’t have any installed file system filters on it. Filters being the hooks that windows, antivirus, etc have that intercept file writes and such. Could make it much faster on windows for that use-case. I can see custom software using that drive.

Contrived? Definitely. But potentially useful. I can see it working similarly to something MS has in testing which is the file system thing that is super fast but is limited in features—can’t seem to find it atm…

Edit: Found it. Dev drive via ReFS.

It’s okay to have a wrong opinion.

(Don’t take this seriously)

Most of this is just plain incorrect. Or at the very least, drastically oversimplifying it…
