Years After Being Dropped, ZFS Finds Its Way Back To The Mac

zevoTwo weeks ago, the excellent Building Windows 8 blog posted an in-depth look at the upcoming operating system's new file system, ReFS. It reminded me of the promise of so many years ago that OS X would be changing its file system from HFS+ to ZFS. Not a promise many remember or even cared about at the time, but it was, in fact, important. ZFS support was dropped amid development and legal problems, but Don Brady, who was heading up the file system transition team at Apple, left to pursue it independently. And now he's releasing a piece of software, Zevo, which finally adds ZFS support to any Intel Mac running 10.6.6 or later.
