Disk Mirroring with Alternating Deferred Updates

Summary: Disk Mirroring with Alternating Deferred Updates uses shifted mirrors to separate reads and batched writes, boosting throughput on disk-bound workloads. Efficient recovery preserves read performance after disk failure, keeping redundancy cost-effective. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
