A disk is segmented into a first data segment and a secondary data segment. The secondary data segment stores a logical mirror of the first data segment of another disk. Upon detecting a failure, the logical mirror of data stored in the first data segment of the failed disk is accessible from the secondary data segment of a non-failed disk. The first data segment can be rebuilt quickly on another disk from the logical mirror stored in the secondary data segment. During regenerating, accesses to the first data segment on the disk containing the logical mirror are handled by its own logical mirror, which is not involved in the regenerating process.

A system, method and data structure for error correction for use in the transmission of content data distribution networks uses a compressed memory, for example a bitmap, to identify portions of transmitted content data files where transmission errors have occurred. The error memory, is used to generate an error status report that is returned to a transmission controller via a low bandwidth back channel, for example the Internet. The information in multiple error status reports is aggregated by the control system of the transmitter and used to re-transmit those portions of previously transmitted content data files that were not properly received due to error. By re-transmitting only the data packets of the transmitted content data files that contain errors, overall transmission speed is increased and bandwidth usage is conserved.
