7.<p>More seriously they are aimed at different markets. Seaweedfs seems like a great project for simple clusters, and I&#x27;ve used it to store 600Gb without problems. But do bear in mind the bug tracker has several issues relating to backups failing, corruption, and similar. You&#x27;ll need to check your backup-system and assess how serious they might be.<p>Minio started out as &quot;just&quot; an S3-compatible storage system, I&#x27;ve not used it much but certainly I found that I could interface to it with the existing Amazon S3 clients very easily. I&#x27;ve not used that in a distributed setup, just on a single node.<p>Both seem well-documented. Both seem &quot;active&quot;.<p>Pick the one that makes most sense to your use-case (&quot;distributed storage&quot; vs &quot;distributed storage with known-API&quot;) and report your bugs as you find them.
