[ale] Centos

[Beddingfield, Allen]

I would go with XFS.  EXT4 seems to be a dead end with Red Hat moving toward XFS.  
We've been running XFS for years on most everything here, with no issues.  (We are mostly a SUSE shop, and using XFS on "/" has been a  possibility for a long time there...)

Thanks to both Jim and Allen.

Next question:

I'm about to replace an aging (5-year-old) 250 GB RAID-1 setup with an SSD
and 1 TB HD. Should I stay with ext4 or move on to a newer file system?

I am NOT trying to start a flame war, just trying to cover my butt for the
next five years or so.
