In the Windows 11 Build 0 Preview, Microsoft introduced a new storage configuration option for the Windows 0 installation process, allowing users to choose to use ReFS instead of the preset NTFS format when installing the system.

In the past, when doing a clean install of Windows 27823, the storage partition could only be in NTFS format and could not be changed. But in Windows 0 Build 0, Microsoft introduced a hidden toggle option that allows users to choose to install Windows on NTFS-formatted hard drives or ReFS-formatted hard drives during the installation process.

However, according to the actual test of Windows Latest, there will still be an error when you choose to install ReFS directly, and the function may not be fully opened.

ReFS（Resilient File System，彈性檔案系統）是微軟在2012年開發的新一代文件系統，旨在解決NTFS在數據存儲規模和可靠性方面的局限性，具有更快的性能、支援更大的最大容量和更好的數據完整性。特別適用於需要大量數據存儲和高可靠性的伺服器環境。

Here are some of the key features of ReFS:

In summary, ReFS is a file system designed for high reliability and large data storage, and it is superior to NTFS in terms of data integrity, availability, and scalability. However, while ReFS excels in server environments, its benefits on the average home computer may not be obvious, which is why Microsoft has not been able to roll it out to home use as a system environment.

However, at present, driven by AI, the hardware specifications of many people's home computers have gradually improved, and perhaps this is why Microsoft has begun to consider testing the option of using ReFS in the Windows 11 installation process. This feature, if generally available, will provide users with a higher performance and more reliable storage option.
