My apologies, I was maybe a little misleading. Tahoe-LAFS can be used
as a backup software but it is not is primary objective.
It is a distributed and secured storage system, so it is mainly used
with several storage nodes.
As such, I don't think that it is fit for being the primary storage
system for owncloud. However it could be a good option/extension.

Hope that help.
