- The expectation is that a lot of that circuitry is, is just redundancy in order to deal with hardware that doesn't work very well.
- So we decided to try to take advantage of this redundancy.
- So as redundancy is people built bigger and bigger storage systems, they've added more redundancy so they could add more failures.

Etymology
The word redundancy comes from Latin parts re- ('again') and undare ('to flow'), giving the image of an 'overflow' or extra. So in systems, redundancy means extra parts or backups that keep things working if one part fails.
