apples and pears
I sincerely hope this guy has it right because ZFS is a very good file system .
Far superior to HFS+ or NTFS.
This is a bit unfair to NTFS (and probably HFS+) as well.
ZFS combines the functions of a volume manager and a file system - so the better comparison is against "NTFS + VDS" on Windows. ZFS does have some features that "NTFS + VDS" does not have, but VDS does add a lot of useful features that NTFS itself does not support - and since Windows includes VDS in all systems it's reasonable to compare the combination.
(VDS (Virtual Disk Service) is also known as FTDisk (Fault Tolerant Disk).)
For example, you can expand NTFS volumes (either by extending a partition, or spanning the volume across multiple partitions).
You can also move an NTFS volume to a larger disk without taking it offline or rebooting. (Add the new disk, create a RAID-1 mirror with the existing volume on the new disk, when the mirror resynch is complete break the old volume off the mirror, and then extend the volume to use more of the new disk.)
No argument that ZFS doesn't have some interesting additional features, but just making the point that in the end it's what you can do on the system - not what the filesystem by itself is capable of doing.
