From your link: "According to information on Roughly Drafted, 'The problem is that integrity cannot be guaranteed — the AirPort acknowledges receipt of the data before it’s actually written, and if power is interrupted, the disk disconnected, yadayadayada in the window between the Airport acknowledging receipt and the data actually getting written out to disk, [then] it’s gone forever with no way to recover it or even realize it’s gone missing.'"
This sounds like the very same issue with the move vs. copy issue that people noticed in Leopard (though it apparently existed prior). To me, it sounds like Apple needs to work on how data is transfered between volumes.
