Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is operable in an over-provisioned storage device comprising a cache region and a main storage region. The method includes compressing incoming data, generating a compression parameter for the compressed data, and storing at least a portion of the compressed data in chunks in the main storage region of the storage device. The method also includes predicting when to store other chunks of the compressed data in the cache region based on the compression parameter.
