> ISP in late 90s. NTFS was absolutely rock reliable, then

Well, i stayed away from NTFS in the Win2000 era because crashes would make your system unusable.

In 90s it was NT4. Excellent OS.
Windows 2000 was stable as a rock, NTFS included. Never had an issue with it.

Windows XP was more stable than 98SE, but it did crash more, because it was a general purpose OS used by people playing games. Still can't recall any major NTFS issues with it.

Windows 2000 with XP drivers (edit the INI file to allow it to install) was the way to go ;)
