Abstract
Machine logic (for example, software) for storing: (i) a plurality of files across multiple disk drives of a RAID array and (ii) checksum data for the files. The machine logic rules assign priority values to each file based on one or more attributes of the files. These priority values are used to determine the order in which files are rebuilt using the checksum data so that the most important files are rebuilt first.
