Just switched our primary backup storage from NTFS to ReFS with a 64k cluster size, configured in RAID 6 with a hot spare. At the moment, it's performing quite well. Using synchronous full backups with fast cloning instead of active full backups for our Agent Backups saves us a ton of time. VMs configured for forward incremental backups don't seem to benefit as much, though.
I hope we won't experience the mentioned performance degradation. The RAID 6 setup is on spindle drives, and currently, it manages roughly 1 GB/s for both reads and writes.
Cheers,
