It's not necessarely faster, so better to be safe and avoid possible slowdown. Also, the original reason of this feature was to detect potential memory errors, but the original issue triggering this need was instead not related to it. It was instead the problem to empty links. |

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.
