Abstract
A method of data replica recovery that is based on separate storage drives connected to a network where each storage drive has a storage space divided to contiguous storage segments and is electronically connected to a memory support component via a connection. Pairs of replicas, each of one of a plurality of data units, are stored in a manner that allows, in response to detection of a storage failure in one storage drive, to create replacement replicas in the memory support components of the other storage drives to assure that two replicas of each data unit can be found in the storage system.
