Well I've been using NTFS exclusively since 1996 (NT4) and accumulated 870Gb of data. I've never had a single byte of corruption. Not one, not ever. The data is checksummed about once a month. 26 is a very high number for a deterministic system compared to zero. My recentish MBP purchase (2011) resulted in a single corrupt file copying 1/3 of that volume onto the machine over the LAN. this was 10.7 at the time. That scared me a little. The Linux kit I operate has had no discernable data corruption either in the last 12 years. I know this is an anecdote but over time that's a huge cumulative error.
