Abstract
Techniques for transferring data involve: determining a first physical block in a first storage device, the first physical block having a plurality of data blocks stored thereon. The techniques further involve: determining, based on a first data block of the plurality of data blocks, whether a set of logically contiguous data blocks that comprise the first data block exist in the first physical block, the set of data blocks having a target heat greater than a threshold heat. The techniques further involve: transferring, in response to the existence of the set of data blocks in the first physical block, the set of data blocks into a second storage device for contiguous storage in a second physical block of the second storage device. Accordingly, relatively high heat data blocks are transferred to device with higher access speed, thereby reducing data access time, increasing data processing efficiency, and improving user experience.
