ISTM one could design a filesystem as a Byzantine-fault-tolerant distributed system that happens to have many nodes (disks) partially sharing hardware (CPU, memory, etc). The result would not look that much like RAID, but would look quite a bit like Ceph and its relatives.
Bonus points for making the result efficiently support multiple nodes, each with multiple disks.
