IMHO, physical disks and cloud IaaS are on very different levels of
abstraction. Your resources may get migrated around in the data center
anyways, don't they? Hence, there is probably not /the/ physical disk a
resource lives on.

I'd rather understand Tahoe as a way to achieve classical n-modular
redundancy (yes, *probably* not dying all together…) and especially to
be able to achieve geo and provider redundancy.
