{{BoxInfo|Raid Levels|There’s some similarity with traditional RAID levels, but this could be confusing to users familiar with the traditional meaning. Due to the similarity, the RAID terminology is widely used in the documentation (of btrfs). See [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID RAID@wikipedia],[https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/mkfs.btrfs.html#profiles RAID profiles@btrfs.readthedocs] | |||

Using one ore more devices to build a volume. This volume has the '''capacity of all the used devices together(1+2+3+4...)'''. This is an very easy way to expand your volume when you need more space. You even can add 2 or 3 devices at a time. When you want to replace a device, you can add the new device, then remove the old device. Btrfs will move all data as necessary. ''To distribute all data to all devices you may want to '''balance''' the volume.'' Btrfs will stripe the data to all devices. | Using one ore more devices to build a volume.

By default, '''metadata will be mirrored''' across two devices and '''data will be striped''' across all of the devices present. But if you have 2 or more devices in your volume you should consider using RAID 1. | By default, '''metadata will be mirrored''' across two devices and '''data will be striped''' across all of the devices present.

In order to preserve the integrity of the volume, Btrfs does separate CRC-checksums of metadata blocks and of data blocks. Every time a data block is read, the checksum is verified. When the checksum shows that the data is not good, Btrfs tries to get a good copy from the mirrored block. Then the bad block is written again with the good data from the mirrored block. This happens in background. The filesystem has been repaired, and this is logged into syslog. This can be forced by using btrfs scrub. | In order to preserve the integrity of the volume, Btrfs does separate CRC-checksums of metadata blocks and of data blocks.
