This document presents a preliminary proposal for a distributed storage system for volunteer computing. It discusses using volunteer computing resources to create a distributed storage system with no single point of failure that provides data availability and integrity. Some challenges include that distributed storage systems for volunteer computing do not currently exist. The proposal reviews existing peer-to-peer distributed storage systems and surveys which may be suitable. The objectives are to evaluate systems based on security, availability, and reliability, and possibly experiment with suitable systems in a distributed storage testbed.
