## Highlights
- *allows the server to start under situations where the disk is faulty*, this is to ensure that other
good drive(s) locally on the same node are usable. Previously we kept the servers down
simply to provide more attention for the administrator to fix these drives, but in containerized
environments this is not true and pods crashing can have other issues - to improve the
situation for containerized environments allow the server to be operable - instead the administrator
should look at `mc admin info` to look for faulty drives to be fixed/replaced, see #10175
- CopyObject optimization to avoid creating a new copy of the entire object if the destination
is the same object copied from the same source object with versionId specified. #10170
- Allow write quorum calculation under reduced parity uniform across all write operations #10186
