Abstract
Many applications of computer disk systems require extremely stringent levels of reliability, typically achieved through some form of redundancy. This redundancy usually greatly increases the cost of the system. For a certain form of redundancy, the extra expense can be justified in that, not only is system reliability improved, but system performance is improved as well.
