Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving a write request on a first cache system, wherein the write request identifies new content to be written to a data array. A write request content identifier associated with the new content is compared to a plurality of content identifiers included within a content directory for the first cache system to determine if a matching content identifier exists. Each of the plurality of content identifiers is associated with a piece of previously-written content included within the first cache system. If a matching content identifier is identified, content on the data array is copied from a first location on the data array associated with the matching content identifier to a second location on the data array associated with the write request content identifier.
