Description
In cloud environment, cloud disk IO may get stuck for a while due to cloud vendor infrastructure issues. This may affect the foreground latency dramatically. Raft log apply doesn't sync mostly, so it wouldn't be a problem. While raft log append is synced every time. To alleviate that, we can hedge raft log to two different cloud disks. If either one of them is synced, the raft log append is considered finished. Thus when one of the cloud disk IO is stuck, the other one can still work and doesn't affect foreground write flow.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Raft log append and sync path, then determine how two cloud disks could be coordinated so either successful sync completes the append while preserving correctness. Done means the design and implementation handle a stalled disk without increasing foreground write latency, with coverage for both disk outcomes.
