    4242[https://www.stanford.edu/~engler/explode-osdi06.pdf eXplode: A lightweight, general approach for finding serious errors in storage systems], a follow-on by the authors of "Using Model Checking to Find Serious File System Errors", compares ext2, ext3, reiserfs, reiser4, jfs, xfs, msdos, vfat, hfs, and hfs+ to see if you sync them and then crash them if your allegedly synced data is actually recoverable (impatient: page 11)

     44(Summary: basically it looks to me (Zooko) like reiser3 is better-engineered for handling faults than are the other local filesystems.  See also the recent revelation that ext3 has been running with write barriers turned off all this time: http://lwn.net/Articles/283161 .)
