SnapRAID stores redundancy information in the disk array,
and it allows recovering from up to two disk failures.

Beside the ability to recover from disk failures, the other
features of SnapRAID are:
* You can start using SnapRAID with already filled disks.
* The disks can have different sizes.
* You can add disks at any time.
* If you accidentally delete some files in a disk, you can
recover them.
* If more than two disks fail, you lose the data only on the
failed disks. All the data in the other disks is safe.
* It doesn't lock-in your data. You can stop using SnapRAID at any
time without the need to reformat or move data.
* All your data is hashed to ensure data integrity and to avoid
silent corruption.
