A computer system is provided, including a first data storage with a first retrieval latency, a second data storage with a second retrieval latency that is higher than the first retrieval latency, and a processor coupled to a memory that stores instructions, which cause the processor to store a series of recovery points of a data collection in the first data storage. For a current recovery point of the series of recovery points, the processor is further configured to compute a difference between an incremental changed block value of one or more prior recovery points and a number of memory blocks inherited from the one or more prior recovery points. The processor generates and outputs a storage transfer recommendation to store a subset of the one or more of the prior recovery points in the second data storage rather than the first data storage, based on the computed difference.
