Abstract
In a data storage device where a data writer is predicted to fail, cold data can be identified and subsequently moved to a data storage medium corresponding to the failing data writer. The data writer may be positioned proximal the data storage medium where data is stored. A controller can predict the failure in the data writer and transition all the data in the data storage medium to a read only status.
