Abstract
A storage system such as a hard disc drive (HDD), solid-state drive (SSD), hybrid drive (SSHD), storage rack, set of storage racks, JBOD, array of discs, etc. may include a variety of storage media. Failures may be detected in the storage media of the storage system. Such a failure may affect the physical capacity of the storage system. A storage controller of the storage system initiates a media conversion that converts a portion of the storage media from media storing data according to a first recording scheme to a media storing data according to a second recording scheme. The second recording scheme stores data at a higher density compared to the first recording scheme.
