If I have a handful of disks ranging from 256G to 4T, will XtreemFS's redundancy algorithm handle the inconsistent disk size in an elegant way?

I'm looking for a filesystem that will, in essence, let my family members and I toss whatever disks we have on hand into various machines that, together, form a highly fault-tolerant filesystem that could survive the loss of all disks at any particular residence.  There are blockchain-based solutions that accomplish exactly this on a global scale, however they are all relatively immature compared to XtreemFS, MinIO, OpenIO, CEPH, etc., and almost certainly will have poor performance compared to non-blockchain solutions.

You can try SeaweedFS.
