Abstract
Techniques for storage management involve: determining expected usage time of a first storage disk in a set of storage disks, at least a part of the set of storage disks being configured to form at least one redundant array of independent disks (RAID); moving data in a first storage block, associated with a first RAID in the at least one RAID, in the first storage disk to a second storage block in a second storage disk in the set of storage disks based on a determination that the expected usage time is less than a predetermined threshold value; and replacing the first storage block with the second storage block, so that the second storage block is associated with the first RAID. Based on this manner, the stability of a storage system can be improved.
