Abstract
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for determining a storage device type on which to store extents of data in a storage system. The storage system provides a first storage device type that has native data compression at a first compression ratio and a second storage device type that has native data compression at a second compression ratio. The second compression ratio is higher than the first compression ratio. A determination is made for an extent to store the extent on the first storage device type or the second storage device type based on access frequency to data in the extent and an Input/Output (I/O) priority level for the extent. The extent is stored on the determined first or second storage device type.
