Abstract
Technologies are provided for supporting multi-actuator storage device access using logical addresses. Separate sets of storage locations on a storage medium of a storage device can be associated with different actuators of the storage device. For example, a first set of storage locations can be assigned to a first actuator of the storage device and a second set of storage locations can be assigned to a second actuator of the storage device. The storage locations of the storage medium can be associated with logical addresses. The storage device can receive a data access request containing a logical address and can identify a storage location associated with the logical address. The storage device can identify a storage location set to which the storage location belongs and can use an actuator associated with the storage location set to access the storage location associated with the logical address.
