RAID6-FR (Provides the High Speed Rebuild Function, and Striping with Double Distributed Parity)
Distributing multiple data groups and reserved space equivalent to hot spares to the configuration drives makes
it possible to recover from up to two drive failures. RAID6-FR requires less build time than RAID6.
