+
+#### `consistency_mode` {#consistency_mode}
+
+The consistency mode setting determines the read and write behaviour of your cluster.
+
+  - `consistent`: The default setting. This is what the paragraph above describes.
+    The read and write quorum will be determined so that read-after-write consistency
+    is guaranteed.
+  - `degraded`: Lowers the read
     quorum to `1`, to allow you to read data from your cluster when several
     nodes (or nodes in several zones) are unavailable.  In this mode, Garage
-    does not provide read-after-write consistency anymore.  The write quorum is
-    still 2, ensuring that data successfully written to Garage is stored on at
-    least two nodes.
-
-  - `3-dangerous`: a variant of replication mode `3` that lowers both the read
+    does not provide read-after-write consistency anymore.
+    The write quorum stays the same as in the `consistent` mode, ensuring that
+    data successfully written to Garage is stored on multiple nodes (depending
+    the replication factor).
+  - `dangerous`: This mode lowers both the read
     and write quorums to `1`, to allow you to both read and write to your
     cluster when several nodes (or nodes in several zones) are unavailable.  It
     is the least consistent mode of operation proposed by Garage, and also one
     that should probably never be used.
 
-Note that in modes `2` and `3`,
-if at least the same number of zones are available, an arbitrary number of failures in
-any given zone is tolerated as copies of data will be spread over several zones.
+Changing the `consistency_mode` between modes while leaving the `replication_factor` untouched
+(e.g. setting your node's `consistency_mode` to `degraded` when it was previously unset, or from
+`dangerous` to `consistent`), can be done easily by just changing the `consistency_mode`
+parameter in your config files and restarting all your Garage nodes.
 
-**Make sure `replication_mode` is the same in the configuration files of all nodes.
-Never run a Garage cluster where that is not the case.**
+The consistency mode can be used together with various replication factors, to achieve
+a wide range of read and write characteristics. Some examples:
+
+  - Replication factor `2`, consistency mode `degraded`: While this mode
+    technically exists, its properties are the same as with consistency mode `consistent`,
+    since the read quorum with replication factor `2`, consistency mode `consistent` is already 1.
+
+  - Replication factor `2`, consistency mode `dangerous`: written objects are written to
+    the second replica asynchronously. This means that Garage will return `200
+    OK` to a PutObject request before the second copy is fully written (or even
+    before it even starts being written).  This means that data can more easily
+    be lost if the node crashes before a second copy can be completed.  This
+    also means that written objects might not be visible immediately in read
+    operations.  In other words, this configuration severely breaks the consistency and
+    durability guarantees of standard Garage cluster operation.  Benefits of
+    this configuration: you can still write to your cluster when one node is
+    unavailable.
 
 The quorums associated with each replication mode are described below:
 
-| `replication_mode` | Number of replicas | Write quorum | Read quorum | Read-after-write consistency? |
