Earlier this month, we reported that The Unofficial Apple Weblog's as well as Ars Technica's sources said that Apple was working on the next version of Mac OS X, dubbed Snow Leopard. The news was that the new release wouldn't focus on new features, but on performance. During yesterday's WWDC 2008 keynote, Steve Jobs confirmed this rumour, and now Apple has published a preview page.

"I hope that ZFS will find it's way inside the final feature set :o)
I was thinking the same thing -- HFS is kind of a big joke as far as file systems go (normalizing unicode characters and all sort of other fun treats)
Mac OS X + ZFS would be pretty sweet. "The server edition will have ZFS, according to Apple.

"ZFS: For business-critical server deployments, Snow Leopard Server adds read and write support for the high-performance, 128-bit ZFS file system, which includes advanced features such as storage pooling, data redundancy, automatic error correction, dynamic volume expansion, and snapshots."
