What is the Linux Virtual File System used for?
The Linux VFS (Virtual File System) may be thought of as a sort of interface between the Linux kernel and the mounted file systems. There can be many different file system types mounted simultaneously and VFS allows the Linux kernel to see and address them all in a similar way. This provides Linux with a great deal of flexibility. [JMH]

What is the difference between Linux and Windows file systems?
Windows uses 4 file systems: FAT, NTFS, exFAT, and ReFS. "Linux" supports dozens of file systems, there are too many to mention. The differences between them are massive and specific to the file system in question. For a proper answer you need to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system . It is incorrect to say "the Linux file system is faster than Windows" because it's dependent on the data, and of course because there is no "Linux file system." It's incorrect to say "The Linux filesystem is more/less secure than the Windows file system" for the same reason. Drive encryption is available in both Windows and Linux. To the average user, there is no functional difference.
What file is used on a Linux system?

Any file system can be used by a floppy disk, as long as the minimum partition size of the file system does not exceed the capacity of the floppy. FAT12 is the most common on Windows / MS-DOS computers. AFS was common on earlier Macs. ext was used among many Linux users. Floppy disks can use a variety of file systems. On MS-DOS and Windows computers, the primary file system for floppies is FAT12. On older Macs, the file system was HFS or MFS. Linux computers sometimes use ext.
How many file system are there in one hard drive?
Most hard drives have only one partition. Each partition is formatted according to one file system. So most hard drives have only one file system. However, many hard drives have two or more partitions. One common approach is to "dual boot" a computer, with Linux on one partition in the ext4 file system format, and Windows on another partition in the NTFS file system.
How many servers are there in Linux?
Linux is an open source Kernel a key element in any operating system responsible amongst other things for managing memory. A Linux distribution is an operating system based on the Linux kernel, there are many Linux distributions. Please reword the question.
