Leverage erasure encoding for durability and avoid both the tripling and local parity. You'll get better durability than 3x while only taking up significantly less than 2x the space Backblaze open sourced their library and talk about it here, https://www.backblaze.com/blog/Reed-Solomon https://www.backblaze.com/blog/Reed-Solomon. They use a 17:20 ratio that'll get them 3 drive failure resistance for just 1.17x stretch (ie a 100mb file gets that resilient while taking up 117mb of space)
