This is interesting. I've been looking for a file system for a non-RAID disk array I want to set up at home, and this seems to have some of the characteristics I'm looking for. The primary downfall for my particular use case seems to be that I want to use partiy-based error correction rather than (or, in addition to) replication, because I want the array to be able to survive a failure of any N disks in the array. Is there anything like that out there (other than Unraid, which I kinda don't like)?

SeaweedFS does support erasure coding for warm data.

  Are there any docs on this feature? I couldn't find anything in the readme other than the blanket statement that it existed.
