Thank you for that clarification.

Another question about this, presume #1 10 gb, #2 20 gb, #3 35 gb

We have #1 and #2 open, #3 is taking 50% of the 'free space' shown. Is writing data in #1 or #2 have a roughly 50% chance of destroying data in #3 or does it known mapped blocks and the overwrite only happens once the actual free amount is used up?




Roughly 50% chance of messing up with data in #3.

There is the possibility of reducing a bit this chance at the cost of wasting more space by using error-correction, e.g. with RAID, if so desired. This is explained in the paper and in the FAQ and the README.
