Abstract

Methods, computer media encoding instructions, and systems that receive write requests directed to non-sequential logical block addresses and write the write requests to sequential disk block addresses in a storage system include an overprovision of a storage system to include an increment of additional storage space such that it is more likely a large enough sequential block of storage will be available to accommodate incoming write requests.
