Hi!
I just read
http://www.amplidata.com/pdf/The-RAID-Catastrophe.pdf
According to that – well marketing white paper – it offers huge advantages over just replicating the data several times.
What do you think about it?
Can BTRFS use Forward Correction Codes to allow scenarios like 4 out of 12 drives can fail? And can this provide an advantage over regular replication?
Ciao,
