Unfortunately, no one can be told what a file is. You have to see it for yourself.
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the file system goes.



The downtime isn’t the biggest issue, you can plan around that. The real problem is the random lag on some queries and volatile memory being lost (usually when there’s a context change).
