I'm tired of people flaming AFS, saying how it crashes their drives, how it's no
faster than FFS.  The fact is it *is* a lot faster, it is practically impossible
to invalidate and is infinitely better than FFS-DC.

'But it crashed my HD' people say.  Well if they RTFM and set the proper
maxtrans rate etc, and used HDToolBox/RDPrep properly then maybe they wouldn't
have these problems.  If you don't have a clue, stay away from AFS.  Otherwise
use it, it's one of the most useful things available.
