On the most basic level, it offers protection to the contents of a file-system under its umbrella by computing the hashes of its component files and storing the results on a parity file. In the event of a complete hard drive failure, this parity file can be used to reconstruct the lost data. For full detail, visit SnapRAID's [official comparison of file protection engines.](http://snapraid.sourceforge.net/compare.html)\n\n**Q**: Why a GUI, the Command Line works!\u003cbr/\u003e\n**A**: The larger goal is to create a feature-complete GUI with additional management features designed to aid a user in maintaining a functioning SnapRAID environment. Sometimes, ‘point and clicks’ are easier for a novice to get going with. SnapRAID's technical documentation and deep configurability can make adopting it off-putting to those looking to try it out!\n\n**Q**: I'm still uncertain, is there more ?\u003cbr/\u003e\n**A**: Yes, Have a look at the [documentation](./docs/Documentation.md) for pictures etc.\n\n**Q**: So what are the \"Larger Goals\" ?\u003cbr/\u003e\n**A**: See the __Roadmap__ below for a complete breakdown.\n\n## Roadmap\n\n- [x] Phase I\n  - [x] Attempt to keep up with the minimum support of the latest SnapRAID. - __On-going.__\n  - [x] Ease of use\n  - [x] SnapRAID has three commands, so lets make them simple to access for a novice \n  - [x] Progress indicator(s) \n  - [x] Logging \"Interactive\" and straight to log. \n  - [x] Auto start-up on user login \n  - [x] Tool-tips to guide •\t\n\n- [x] Phase II Phase II Feature requests\n  - [x] Pause, Change priority, Abort.\n  - [x] Command Extension - \"Allow extra parameters to the defaults used.\"\n  - [x] Scheduling \n    - Removed, use the CommandLine\n  - [x] Graphical view(s) of the protected data.\n\n- [ ] Phase III (Restart for 2017-03 onwards)\n  - [x] New Compiler and .Net 4.7.x\t\n  - [x] Command Line interface\n  - [ ] New Layout via Krypton Toolkit / Navigator / etc. \n    - In Progress\n  - [ ] Translations \n  - [x] New Commands\n  - [ ] Mailer with status reports\n  - [ ] Document Test steps\n    - In Progress\n  - [ ] Add to Documentation / Update Images\n    - In Progress\n  - [ ] Add _Windows EventLog_ reporting of Errors\n  - [x] Add _ExceptionLess_ for online reporting of Exceptions\n  - [x] Show what could be recovered. \n\n- [ ] Phase IV (new SnapRAID Commands ?) \n  - [ ] Extended Help with disk recovery - interactive guides etc.. \n  - [ ] Notify the user if their SnapRAID version is outdated\n  - [ ] Interpret the SnapRAID logs (used by the changes below)\n  - [ ] Provide the status of the array following a command run\n  - [ ] Modify the sync command to include an initial diff\n  - [ ] Modify the sync command to throw a warning if the diff has reported problems above a threshold\n  - [ ] Add user configurable settings for sync threshold requirements\n\n\n## Screenshots\n\n![Starting View](./Images/starting_view.png)\n\n![Settings Form](./Images/Settings_Form.PNG)\n\n\n## Can you Help ? \n- Looking for testers (All .Net platforms) \n- Can help translate \n- Help / User interface guides \n- Any other ideas :-) \n- Developers for the ideas \n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsmurf-iv%2Felucidate","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsmurf-iv%2Felucidate","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsmurf-iv%2Felucidate/lists"}
