I've had no data loss yet. Under advice from btrfs experts I'm running
Ubuntu 12.04 with Linux Kernel 3.6 and the latest checkout of the btrfs
tools.

I've even managed to kick the eSATA cable out while it was under load
and it recovered fine. I am enjoying the easy way to add/remove disks to
the array and the fact that I don't have to worry about mixing disk
capacities (drobo style).

Cheers,
