MinIO FIPS executables are available at <http://dl.min.io> - they are only published for `linux-amd64` architecture as binary files with the suffix `.fips`. We also publish corresponding container images to our official image repositories.

MinIO's erasure coded backend uses high speed [HighwayHash](https://github.com/minio/highwayhash) checksums to protect against Bit Rot.

## How are drives used for Erasure Code?

MinIO server supports storage class in erasure coding mode. This allows configurable data and parity drives per object.

This page is intended as a summary of MinIO Erasure Coding. For a more complete explanation, see <https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/operations/concepts/erasure-coding.html>.

## Overview

	msgLine2Fmt := " Update: %s "

	// Calculate length *without* color coding: with ANSI terminal
	// color characters, the result is incorrect.
	line1Length := len(fmt.Sprintf(msgLine1Fmt, newerThan))
	line2Length := len(fmt.Sprintf(msgLine2Fmt, updateString))

	// Populate lines with color coding.
	line1InColor := fmt.Sprintf(msgLine1Fmt, color.YellowBold(newerThan))
