A while back, I had reformatted my system with HFS+ Case Sensitive. I didn’t have a good reason, other than I was familiar with Unix/Linux file systems. So after a few months of running this way, I reinstalled with HFS+. Reasons? Application support, or lack of. Its been a few months, but off the top of my head the following would not work on HFS+ CS.

-Adobe CS4 Suite
-Oracle IRM
-World of Warcraft

On top of the application issues, it is highly annoying when my backed up data cannot be copied from my HFS+ CS DMG due to file name conflicts. I had to manually change names, and merge folders. Ugh!
