Good point Cedric!! The only thing is that, I would prefer to say "bricks" instead of "nodes" in your statement.

Also keep in mind that dispersed cluster can only be expanded by the number of initial nodes, eg starting with 4 nodes 3+1 can only evolve by adding 4 nodes 3+1, you cannot change the default policy 3+1 to 4+1. So the granularity of the evolution of the cluster is fixed at the beginning.
