Just another data point: when I switched to btrfs in the middle of last year I used btrfs-convert on two file systems (an SSD and my backup partition on a USB 3.0 HDD), and it worked in both cases (i.e., no data loss). I did see some strange balance issues (see the ML archives), but IIRC nothing really serious. -- Marc Joliet -- "People who think they know everything really annoy those of us who know we don't" - Bjarne Stroustrup
