Abstract
A method performed by a computing device, of configuring a new design of a new data storage system (DSS) having initial configuration parameters is provided. The new design includes an initial plurality of storage drives. The method includes (a) collecting operational information from a plurality of remote DSSs in operation, the operational information including numbers of writes of various write sizes received by respective remote DSSs of the plurality of remote DSSs over time; (b) modeling a number of drive writes per day (DWPD) of the initial plurality of storage drives of the new DSS based on the collected operational information from the plurality of remote DSSs and the initial configuration parameters; (c) comparing the modeled number of DWPD to a threshold value; and (d) in response to the modeled number of DWPD exceeding the threshold value, reconfiguring the new DSS with an updated design.
