> Raid introduce the new dependency between blocks within a file.
> The blocks help decode each other. Therefore we should avoid put them on the same machine.
> The proposed BlockPlacementPolicy does the following
> 1. When writing parity blocks, it avoid the parity blocks and source blocks sit together.
> 2. When reducing replication number, it deletes the blocks that sits with other dependent blocks.
> 3. It does not change the way we write normal files. It only has different behavior when processing raid files.
