If the user like to scrub new blocks, he can now use the -p new option, and then call again scrub with a percentage to scrub the old blocks. Scrubbing old and new blocks are two different operations, and make sense to keep them separated. Mixing them could instead raise problematic issues, like not being able to predict the time required for a full scrub cycle, as it depends also on the amount of synced data. |

SnapRAID
========
SnapRAID is a backup program for disk arrays. It stores parity
information of your data and it recovers from up to six disk
failures.
SnapRAID is mainly targeted for a home media center, where you
have a lot of big files that rarely change.
Beside the ability to recover from disk failures, the other
features of SnapRAID are:
* All your data is hashed to ensure data integrity and to avoid
silent corruption.
* If the failed disks are too many to allow a recovery,
you lose the data only on the failed disks.
All the data in the other disks is safe.
* If you accidentally delete some files in a disk, you can
recover them.
* You can start with already filled disks.
* The disks can have different sizes.
* You can add disks at any time.
* It doesn't lock-in your data. You can stop using SnapRAID at any
time without the need to reformat or move data.
* To access a file, a single disk needs to spin, saving power and
producing less noise.
