Branch: CURRENT, Version: 12.3, Package name: snapraid-12.3, Maintainer: mp

SnapRAID is a backup program designed for disk arrays, storing parity
information for data recovery in the event of up to six disk failures.

Primarily intended for home media centers with large, infrequently
changing files, SnapRAID offers several features:

- You can utilize disks already filled with files without the need to
reformat them, accessing them as usual.
- All your data is hashed to ensure data integrity and prevent silent
corruption.
- When the number of failed disks exceeds the parity count, data loss
is confined to the affected disks; data on other disks remains
accessible.
- If you accidentally delete files on a disk, recovery is possible.
- Disks can have different sizes.
- You can add disks at any time.
- SnapRAID doesn't lock in your data; you can stop using it anytime
without reformatting or moving data.
- To access a file, only a single disk needs to spin, saving power
and reducing noise.
