Abstract
A method, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium for information processing are provided according to example embodiments of the present disclosure. The method comprises receiving, at a storage device, a data block and fingerprint information correlated with the data block, the fingerprint information being configured to identify the data block; and determining a storage position of the received data block based on predetermined correlations between fingerprint information and storage positions and the received fingerprint information, the predetermined correlations comprising at least correlations between historical fingerprint information correlated with stored data blocks and historical storage positions. Thus, a storage position of a data block can be determined based on received fingerprint information and predetermined correlations between fingerprint information and storage positions, thereby improving efficiency of redundant data deletion.
