It'd be good to have an article describing CoW, and considerations for setting up snapshots and bitrot protection. I don't think a full btrfs tutorial is needed, just an overview of the "cloning" idea as it applies to the NAS snapshot structure and the usual discussion on both the value and limitation of snapshots - fragmentation, impracticality of backing up snapshots, etc. This could possibly be merged into one article (or maybe cross-link them so people can easily get from one to the other).
