- Disks used for Minio distributed should be fresh with no pre-existing data.
- The IP addresses and drive paths below are for demonstration purposes only, you need to replace these with the actual IP addresses and drive paths/folders.
- Servers running distributed Minio instances should be less than 3 seconds apart. You can use [NTP](http://www.ntp.org/) as a best practice to ensure consistent times across servers.
- Running Distributed Minio on Windows is experimental as of now. Please proceed with caution.
Example 1: Start distributed Minio instance with 1 drive each on 8 nodes, by running this command on all the 8 nodes.

export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<ACCESS_KEY>
