Comparison of EXT4 and NTFS filesystem performance
Porównanie wydajności systemu plików EXT4 i NTFS
Abstract
The aim of this article is to compare the two most popular and competing file systems – EXT4 and NTFS in Ubutnu with the use of SSD disk.. At the beginning of this article, a critical description of the literature was made, explaining the purposefulness of the research undertaken. Additionally, the basics of the operation of both discussed file systems are explained. The research consisted of copying files between two partitions and measuring the time of this operation using a specially developed system shell script in the bash language. The conducted research has shown that the EXT4 system is more effective than the NTFS system.
