Abstract
A computer-implemented method for predicting a risk of disk failure is described herein. The method can include collecting a performance parameter for respective disks in a group of disks, and calculating an expected value of the performance parameter for the group of disks. The method can also include comparing a respective value of the performance parameter for a respective disk in the group of disks to the expected value, and predicting a risk of disk failure based on the comparison. For example, when a difference between the respective value of the performance parameter for the respective disk and the expected value exceeds a threshold, the respective disk may be at risk of failing.
