# Drive3 Overview Introduction

Drive3 is a decentralized storage system-based Web3 storage network disk application. Its distinctive feature is the dispersed storage of data (with user-selectable encryption) across various nodes in the network. By avoiding the issues associated with centralization, the server conducts data availability testing and promptly repairs any damage caused by unforeseen events, thereby mitigating the risk of data loss. Compared to traditional storage network disks, Drive3 provides encryption in its transmission mechanism, backup process, and data sharing.&#x20;

The user's stored data is solely managed by their private key, granting them exclusive rights such as viewing, deleting, and banning any third-party identities within the system. Furthermore, Drive3 employs point-to-point network transmission technology, offering significantly faster transmission speeds compared to conventional storage methods. This enables instant responses and seamless, high-speed data transfers.
