Abstract
A method includes dispersed storage error encoding, by a computing device, a data segment of a data file to produce a set of encoded data slices. The method further includes determining, by the computing device, a storage & error encoding scheme for storing the set of encoded data slices. The method further includes sending, by the computing device, the set of encoded data slices to the set of storage units. The method further includes receiving, by a first storage unit, one or more encoded data slices. The method further includes processing, by the first storage unit, the one or more encoded data slices in accordance with a first version of the storage & erroring encoding scheme to produce a first set of encoded data sub-slices. The method further includes storing, by the first storage unit, the first set of encoded data sub-slices in a set of memory devices.
