Apparatuses, systems, methods, and program products are disclosed for improved storage performance based on data placement. An identifier module generates a plurality of unique identifiers. Each of the unique identifiers is associated with a storage node of a storage cluster. A rank module ranks each of the plurality of unique identifiers in response to a received data item. The ranking of a unique identifier is based on one or more characteristics associated with the received data item. A storage module selects a unique identifier of the plurality of unique identifiers with a best ranking and stores the data item on a storage node associated with the selected unique identifier.

Storage performance based on data placement

An improved technique provides access to video data using a network attached storage (NAS) device. The technique involves detecting access to a video camera from the NAS device through a network, and receiving a video store command from a user workstation through the network. The video store command directs the NAS device to store video data provided by the video camera to the NAS device through the network. The technique further involves storing the video data provided by the video camera to the NAS device through the network in response to the video store command.
