You don't need ZFS or BTRFS to get most of what you'd get from them on Linux.
You can use a combination of mdadm and lvm to handle RAID, thin provisioned volume management, and snapshots with *any* filesystem that Linux supports.
This is especially handy when you use XFS, which outperforms ZFS and BTRFS in every speed benchmark. It is also a much more mature solution, far less risky with your data. Though ZFS is better for that than BTRFS.
