MinIO protects data against hardware failures and silent data corruption using erasure code and checksums. With the highest level of redundancy, you may lose up to half (N/2) of the total drives and still be able to recover the data.

## What is Erasure Code?

- Any JBOD inconsistent - return failure
- Some are corrupt (missing format.json) - return failure
- Any unrecognized disks - return failure

Some disks are offline and we have quorum.
-----------------
- Some unformatted - format all and return success,
  treat disks offline as corrupted.
- Any JBOD inconsistent - return failure
- Some are corrupt (missing format.json)
- Any unrecognized disks - return failure
