## How are drives used for Erasure Code?
MinIO divides the drives you provide into erasure-coding sets of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 drives. Therefore, the number of drives you present must be a multiple of one of these numbers. Each object is written to a single erasure-coding set.
MinIO divides the drives you provide into erasure-coding sets of *4 to 16* drives. Therefore, the number of drives you present must be a multiple of one of these numbers. Each object is written to a single erasure-coding set.
Minio uses the largest possible EC set size which divides into the number of drives given. For example, 18 drives are configured as 3 sets of 6 drives; but 24 drives are configured as 2 sets of 12 drives.
Minio uses the largest possible EC set size which divides into the number of drives given. For example, *18 drives* are configured as *2 sets of 9 drives*, and *24 drives* are configured as *2 sets of 12 drives*.
The drives should all be of approximately the same size.
